Foxborough and Randolph, Mass. — From the serious spinner class participant to road cyclist to the wine buff, the auction gem of a front-row seat to the Tour de France finish line is enticing.
 
As part of its 60th anniversary celebration, nonprofit May Institute is auctioning a number of unique items including a Tour de France package that features five days in Paris, hotel accommodations for two, and an unforgettable day in reserved grandstand seating at the finish line on the Champs-Elysées, followed by a private cocktail reception. The package has an estimated value of $3,200. All proceeds will benefit May Institute.

The family-owned company represents some of the world's most storied cycling brands including Topeak accessories, OnGuard security, and Velox bicycles.
 
“As a long-standing May Institute board member, co-chairman of its 60th anniversary event and champion of children’s causes, I want to do something special to help celebrate the organization’s history and accomplishments,” noted Neal Todrys, president of Todson. He added, “As a cycling enthusiast and wine aficionado, I know that many of my colleagues and friends have the Tour de France on the bucket list.  We hope that people will bid generously to celebrate life, travel and adventure.”
