Distance - Family Route-2 miles; Regular Route-25 miles

Third annual bike event that will offer cyclists a breath-taking view of scenic Northeast Iowa while pedaling through the winding roads of Allamakee County past the Yellow River during the fall foliage. Two courses have been designed to the varying cycling abilities: an in-town, family friendly route (approx. 2 miles) and a long distance route designed for more novice cyclists that includes rolling hills, winding paved roads as well as a 6-7% downhill run at the beginning of the course. Profits raised from this event will go towards the school playground equipment upgrades.
