what is taking on the tour
The Take on the Tour project is a 24 month athletic endeavor by Shad Ireland, the first kidney dialysis patient in the world to successfully complete Ironman, and to take on the sport of cycling. His goal is to ride several of the toughest stages of all of the major cycling tours around the world in order to educate and inspire. No matter what your challenge, WE CAN ALL BE INSPIRED!

“An individual inspired can accomplish anything, and we have the ability to inspire others by doing what inspires us. I wish everyone, NO LIMITATIONS, ONLY INSPIRATION!” ~ Shad Ireland
