Join Pussanee and me for a Bike and Brew event. Sugar Grove and Batavia weather calls for Sunny skies with a high of 70F and winds out of the northeast at 10 to 15 mph. Nice, easy bike and brew ride on the scenic and paved Virgil Gilman and Fox River Trails. If you are a little slower, no problem we will ride the pace of the slowest rider. E-bikes are most welcome. Great River views along the Fox River on the way. Between Batavia and the North Aurora Dam, the Fox River Trail runs along both sides of the river, with the east bank section running through the very beautiful Red Oak and Glenwood Park Forest Preserves. Also in Aurora, the trail runs along both sides of the river for about a mile, between East Illinois Street and East New York Street. The Virgil Gilman has varying landscape, lots of awesome bridges, nice mixtures of open fields and shade cover and travels from quiet forest and prairie lands to bustling neighborhoods in just 11.3 miles, linking a woodsy community college campus with the Village of Montgomery. All paved trails except about 100 yards of limestone on the Virgil, so any bike is fine. There is about a ½ mile road connection through an Industrial area. Midway stop is at Sturdy Shelter Brewing for a fine craft beer. The first beer for all riders at Sturdy Shelter is on Pussanee and me. If you don’t drink beer they have cider, red & white wine plus handcrafted house sodas, soft drinks, and other Non-Alcoholic options such as clod brewed coffee so whatever your pleasure, the first one is on us. Please kindly register due to remote start. Please park in the back of the College by the bike trail. This is my 34 mile route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/45239392

Come join us for a Hump Day Hustle ride in Naperville with not a lot of Hustle!! This is a "No Drop" "Social Ride". The ride will be a little different than the Hump Day Hustle leaving out of Villa Park since the main break will be at the end of the ride and the mileage is a little less. We will leave from Pioneer Park, (where there is parking and restroom facilities), take the river path through Knoch Knoll, (restroom break if needed), to Whalen Lake and around, (again restroom break if needed), and then head back the way we came to Pioneer Park for some fellowship at the picnic tables at the end of the ride. Please feel free to bring the beverage or snack of your choice. I have taken this route on several occasions but will be making slight changes throughout the rest of the year to accommodate as many riders as possible. Also, the days are getting shorter so having lights over the next couple of weeks will become mandatory. This will be the last Naperville Hump-Day No Hussle for this Year

This is a highly social, evening ride that has been a Spring, Summer and Fall tradition since August, 2015, always rolling at the speed-of-fun. :-) We ride as a team and enthusiastically encourage communication, conversation and laughter, as long as riders prescribe to safe practices such as: communicating about obstacles; and maintaining gaps that are appropriate for the speed, terrain and weather conditions. Your bike must have headlights and tail lights. Avoid using retina-burning, overly-bright and strobing lights since we ride trails as a tight pack and are usually separated from car and truck traffic. We try to courteously douse headlights when passing pedestrians and fellow riders as we ride into growing darkness. This ride is often best suited for mountain or fat-tire bikes when riding our crushed limestone routes, but also, quite often the weather and trail conditions make this event viable for most any type of bike. No rider will ever be left behind. We have several bona fide EBC Ride Leaders attending this ride for extra safety. Having said that, please don‘t show up if your bike is not ready or you are not in athletic condition for this distance and pace. Note that 10-12 mph on a trail may take the same effort as 13-16 mph on a road; ...and riding a heavy, fat or mountain bike requires yet additional effort. Our routes vary from one week to the next. Look for route information on our e-mail list server each week before the ride. Let‘s rock!

One of my favorite Century Road Rides - The Holland Hundred is a Saturday ride through local towns near Lake Michigan with distance options of: 18, 36, 67 and 100 miles. It has Moderate terrain with rolling short steep hills or moderate climbs. Choose your own distance and speed. I plan on riding the 100 mile ride at a moderate pace depending who attends.

Come ride at your pace, as many loops as you would like at Waterfall Glen Nature Preserve in Darien. Terrain is mixed terrain/gravel, bring whatever bike you would feel comfortable on. This is NOT a road/paved ride so you are aware. This means the terrain is limestone gravel just like the terrain on the Illinois Prairie Path, Great Western Trail and Springbrook Prairie in Naperville. Meet by the bathrooms building and beginning of the trailhead in the Main Parking lot 5 minutes before the ride starts. More details on the site/location here: https://www.dupageforest.org/places-to-go/forest-preserves/waterfall-glen One full loop is 9.5 miles with 421 feet of elevation gain (44 feet per mile of elevation gain). You can do a ¼,½ loop, 1 full loop, 2 loops, 3 or 4 in the time frame. We typically mix up the loops to do clockwise and then counterclockwise but you can do what you want to do. This is YOUR RIDE, you whatever distance at your own pace and what is most comfortable to you, in whatever time frame you would like to ride. Please text or email the Ride Leader at the conclusion of your ride for mileage credit. Motion and nature is so good for ‘da heart + soul!

This is a highly social, evening ride that has been a Spring, Summer and Fall tradition since August, 2015, always rolling at the speed-of-fun. :-) We ride as a team and enthusiastically encourage communication, conversation and laughter, as long as riders prescribe to safe practices such as: communicating about obstacles; and maintaining gaps that are appropriate for the speed, terrain and weather conditions. Your bike must have headlights and tail lights. Avoid using retina-burning, overly-bright and strobing lights since we ride trails as a tight pack and are usually separated from car and truck traffic. We try to courteously douse headlights when passing pedestrians and fellow riders as we ride into growing darkness. This ride is often best suited for mountain or fat-tire bikes when riding our crushed limestone routes, but also, quite often the weather and trail conditions make this event viable for most any type of bike. No rider will ever be left behind. We have several bona fide EBC Ride Leaders attending this ride for extra safety. Having said that, please don‘t show up if your bike is not ready or you are not in athletic condition for this distance and pace. Note that 10-12 mph on a trail may take the same effort as 13-16 mph on a road; ...and riding a heavy, fat or mountain bike requires yet additional effort. Our routes vary from one week to the next. Look for route information on our e-mail list server each week before the ride. Let‘s rock!

This is a highly social, evening ride that has been a Spring, Summer and Fall tradition since August, 2015, always rolling at the speed-of-fun. :-) We ride as a team and enthusiastically encourage communication, conversation and laughter, as long as riders prescribe to safe practices such as: communicating about obstacles; and maintaining gaps that are appropriate for the speed, terrain and weather conditions. Your bike must have headlights and tail lights. Avoid using retina-burning, overly-bright and strobing lights since we ride trails as a tight pack and are usually separated from car and truck traffic. We try to courteously douse headlights when passing pedestrians and fellow riders as we ride into growing darkness. This ride is often best suited for mountain or fat-tire bikes when riding our crushed limestone routes, but also, quite often the weather and trail conditions make this event viable for most any type of bike. No rider will ever be left behind. We have several bona fide EBC Ride Leaders attending this ride for extra safety. Having said that, please don‘t show up if your bike is not ready or you are not in athletic condition for this distance and pace. Note that 10-12 mph on a trail may take the same effort as 13-16 mph on a road; ...and riding a heavy, fat or mountain bike requires yet additional effort. Our routes vary from one week to the next. Look for route information on our e-mail list server each week before the ride. Let‘s rock!

This is a highly social, evening ride that has been a Spring, Summer and Fall tradition since August, 2015, always rolling at the speed-of-fun. :-) We ride as a team and enthusiastically encourage communication, conversation and laughter, as long as riders prescribe to safe practices such as: communicating about obstacles; and maintaining gaps that are appropriate for the speed, terrain and weather conditions. Your bike must have headlights and tail lights. Avoid using retina-burning, overly-bright and strobing lights since we ride trails as a tight pack and are usually separated from car and truck traffic. We try to courteously douse headlights when passing pedestrians and fellow riders as we ride into growing darkness. This ride is often best suited for mountain or fat-tire bikes when riding our crushed limestone routes, but also, quite often the weather and trail conditions make this event viable for most any type of bike. No rider will ever be left behind. We have several bona fide EBC Ride Leaders attending this ride for extra safety. Having said that, please don‘t show up if your bike is not ready or you are not in athletic condition for this distance and pace. Note that 10-12 mph on a trail may take the same effort as 13-16 mph on a road; ...and riding a heavy, fat or mountain bike requires yet additional effort. Our routes vary from one week to the next. Look for route information on our e-mail list server each week before the ride. Let‘s rock!
