Starting at Killens Pond on Saturday, June 14, the Delaware Leap Frog Tour leaps from pond to pond in central and southern Delaware. The Leap Frog Tour provides a choice between two rides:

  •  A 1/2 metric century, a challenge for beginners and intermediate riders, or
  •  A full metric century for the more experienced rider

DelawareLeapFrogThe course is laid out to offer a unique look at the beautiful wet and dry scenery of central and lower Delaware. Ride routes are mostly flat.There are two rest stops for the full metric century ride and one for the half metric century. Rest room facilities, food and drink will be available at all stops and the finish. SAG support is provided.

Both routes are defined by the yellow frog markings on the road. The two route splits are well marked by both frog markers, distances and signs. You don’t have to decide which route you’ll take until the first route split at about 14 miles. You may vary your distance at either point. There are four or more frogs marking each turn. A warning frog before the turn, another warning frog near the turn and a frog marking the turn. A further confirmation frog always appears after the turn. On one zig-zag turn there is not enough room for the far warning frog. Follow the frogs!
