When and Where

Bon Ton 2026
Save - The- Date  July 21-25, 2026

The Bon Ton Tour is located in the Finger Lakes Region of NYS.
This year's ride will feature two overnight locations 
Hobart William Smith in Geneva, NY, and Union Springs Academy in Union Springs, NY.

Bon Ton offers long and short routes each day.

The Long Route appeals to those riders who love the challenge of a 50-100 mile ride per day. The Regular Route, typically 35 - 50 miles per day, tends to attract newer riders & those who plan on spending the day leisurely browsing the markets & attractions along the way. Many riders even switch back & forth between routes during the week, making the Bon Ton The Perfect Tour!

 

The Bon Ton Roulet is a fundraiser for the Auburn YMCA-WEIU . While enjoying a wonderful and healthy vacation, you will also be helping our local YMCA provide youth programming in our communities.
