This feat in distance cycling is meant to spread the message that one way to build a better world is to ensure that we live in strong, healthy and unified communities. The 2014 Cabot Community Tour starts in Jacksonville, FL, and travels north ending roughly 900 miles later in New York, NY.  This year’s route follows the East Coast Greenway, and celebrates those who give their time, strength and skills in order to make our communities stronger.
