“Ok, that was wild…who knew that was in Wisconsin? Not me.” shared Tyler Pearce, the California-based Vegan Cyclist, as he exited the Elroy-Sparta State Trail Tunnel 1 during RAW 2022.
RAW participants are encouraged to bring their families along for a uniquely Wisconsin vacation. In addition to the slow roll on the Elroy Sparta Trail, RAW families can enjoy kids’ activity bags, RAW Car Bingo, swimming and nature activities at Mirror Lake State Park, and more.
For those who have considered riding across our beautiful state by bike, this is the year to do it, and the journey does not have to be taken alone.
This year’s riders will be joined by former Lieutenant Governor Mandela Barnes, who shares, “Traveling the state is one of my favorite things to do, and so is riding my bike. Now I get a chance to do both at the same time, for an amazing cause.”
Ride Across Wisconsin features a well-marked course, full-service ride support provided by Wheel & Sprocket, and bountiful rest stops to refuel along the route. Participants can sign up for an all-inclusive transportation package for themselves, and their bikes, to the host city of La Crosse. A full VIP option that includes RAW apparel, transportation, and lodging is available. Bike Fed members are eligible for a registration discount. Details about Ride Across Wisconsin routes, registration, transportation, and support are available at www.RideAcrossWisconsin.com.
Businesses and communities interested in information on how to support riders, RAW, and the Bike Fed through sponsorship opportunities may contact Community Engagement Manager Michelle Bachaus at michelleb@wisconsinbikefed.org.
As always, RAW promises to be fun, epic, and hard - but worth it. Support of RAW helps to make cycling in Wisconsin better for everyone.
