2025 is the Wisconsin Bike Fed’s 10th Ride Across Wisconsin (RAW) and we are taking a victory lap. And by lap, we mean a loop…around the confluence of the crystal clear Eau Claire and Chippewa Rivers in beautiful Eau Claire! What’s more, it will be a one-day event on Saturday, July 12, 2025.
There are many reasons for these changes: we want to show off more of the amazing cycling in our state, we want to give communities that are not on the border the opportunity to “host”, we want more daylight, and – yes- we just want to try something new.
The event will kick off and conclude at Phoenix Park in downtown Eau Claire, WI, with riders from around the country expected to participate. Cyclists will follow a well-marked course offering two route options: 180 miles or 100 miles. Throughout the ride, we’ve planned for rest stops every 20 miles, where riders can refuel and recharge with a variety of snacks and hydration.
Cycling around Eau Claire, WI offers a scenic and enjoyable experience, with a mix of well-maintained roads, trails, and picturesque views. The city is surrounded by lush forests, rolling hills, and rivers, creating a perfect backdrop for cyclists.
Ride Across Wisconsin is a charity ride that benefits cyclists in Wisconsin.
