Encased Meats & Elite Feats
Tour de Franks is the premier urban cycling event dedicated to the noble pursuit of the perfect hot dog.
Established in 2012 by a group of passionate cyclists with an insatiable appetite, Tour de Franks combines the thrill of a city-wide bike ride with the unmistakable joy of consuming world-class encased meats. What began as a rogue weekend adventure has evolved into a celebrated tradition operating in both Chicago and New York City.
We believe that bicycles and hot dogs are the ultimate equalizers. They cross cultural boundaries and bring people together. The Tour de Franks is not just a race; it's a moving festival, a celebration of local food history, and a testament to the iron stomachs of our athletes.
