Le Tour Stage 5 - Arsicault

FTWNB + Allies

Our final stage of the Tour de Croissant celebrates Le Tour Femmes! This is an FTWNB + allies ride. FTWNB = people who identify as femme, trans, women, and/or non-binary and allies are folks who actively support and advocate for these people. Being an ally on this ride means helping sweep, making sure no one gets dropped, and letting the FTWNB folks set the pace.

Stage 5 is a true classic, Arsicault! Of course we had to pair this with another classic, Hawk hill. Starting at the Conservatory of Flowers, we'll go up through the presidio, across the Golden Gate Bridge, summit Hawk and then head back down, where we will award our jersey classifications (details below)!
