Join over 1,000 riders for scenic cycling through Iron Furnace country and have a blast! French & Pickering Creeks Conservation Trust preserves, protects and connects people to the land in northern Chester County where iron blast furnaces and forges served as cornerstones of industry in colonial Pennsylvania – hence, “Iron Tour”. When you ride in the Iron Tour, you have a direct impact on the preservation of the pristine countryside that surrounds you. Since 1967, French & Pickering has protected over 12,500 acres in northern Chester County. New this year, the Inaugural Gravel Grinder!  This 70 mile ride includes the best scenic gravel, roads, and trails in the area.  With courses ranging from 11 to 100 miles, there’s a ride for everyone.
