Tour de Perris — the Premier Ride of the Perris Valley

The Tour de Perris bike ride was created as one of several events to celebrate the City’s centennial anniversary in 2011. 
Expecting only 100 riders for the inaugural event, the City was overjoyed when 350 registered riders from all
over California and out of state descended on Perris to take part in the Tour de Perris.

With such resounding success, City officials decided to make the Tour de Perris into an annual event
to take place the first weekend in October.

Several events will be held throughout the day on the City Hall campus and will include music, food,
youth activities, games and raffles open to riders, their families, and the public. 

All proceeds from the Tour de Perris event benefit local Perris Youth Charities.
