SUMMARY:Driftless Dart Rouleur
DESCRIPTION:This is the second event in our 2024 Rouleur Series. We’ll start this ride a little earlier for an early finish to allow everyone to get home. \nWe’ll be doing a Dart Populaire Team Event for this ride. This is a ride with a minimum of 120 Km that must be completed in 8 hours. Briefly\, the rules are as follows: \n\n\n\n\n\nTeams consisting of minimum of 3 and no more than 5 riders.\nMinimum distance of 120 Km.\nA minimum of 25 Km must be ridden in the last 2 hours.  This must be verified by a timed and dated receipt.\nThree team members must finish together in order to receive credit for the ride.\nAny team members not finishing with the rest of the team will not receive credit for the ride.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe complete rules can be found here. \nNote that the Dart Populaire counts as a team event for a RUSA cup! \nHere’s the plan for the day: \n\n\n\n\n\nAssuming there will be a lot of solo riders who are interested in doing this ride\, we’ll form teams on the day of the ride.  The main ground rule is: everybody rides!  So don’t worry if you don’t have a team – come anyway!  We’ll form or reform teams as necessary to make sure that everybody rides!\nAlthough for longer events e.g.\, a flèche\, it’s customary for riders to form their own teams and develop their own route for this event we’re assuming that most people will be unattached and won’t want to do their own route design.  Accordingly\, we’ve developed three routes that meet the rules criteria.\nThe Blue River – Spring Green populaire\nThe Boaz to Boscobel populaire\nThe Plain and Fancy populaire\n\n\n\n\n\nNote that the three routes are within .1 of a mile of each other for distance with the Boaz route having about 1\,000 feet more climbing. \nIt sounds more complicated than it is – the absolutely most important thing is we’ll ride in small groups and HAVE FUN! \nTo register for this event: \n\n\n\nClick on the link below to complete a waiver.\nAfter completing the waiver you’ll be taken to PayPal (note that a PayPal account is not required)\n\n\n\nRegister \nNote that there will be no day of ride registration – advance registration is mandatory! \nYour registration is not complete until your completed waiver and PayPal payment is received. \nCurrently RegisteredRandy Anderson Greg Smith Dawn Piech Bob Booth Hollie Long \nIf you’ve registered and want to cancel\, please go to this page to cancel

SUMMARY:Driftless Rouleur 100K
DESCRIPTION:This is the first outing in our Rouleur Series. We’re doing a later than normal start to allow those who are coming for the weekend (there’s another event on Sunday) to drive up in the morning. This is a shorter ride so we should all get finished early to late afternoon. \nWe’ll be doing the always populaire (get it?) route over to Spring Green. We’ve made Spring Green an open control so those who are so inclined can stop at the Spring Green General Store for lunch and of course there are always the alternatives of Culver’s or the Shell station that’s the official control. \n64.3 miles\, RUSA certified\, ridewithgps route here\nBrevet card here \nTo register for this event: \n\n\n\nClick on the link below to complete a waiver.\nAfter completing the waiver you’ll be taken to PayPal (note that a PayPal account is not required)\n\n\n\nRegister \nNote that there will be no day of ride registration – advance registration is mandatory! \nYour registration is not complete until your completed waiver and PayPal payment is received. \nCurrently RegisteredRandy Anderson Greg Smith Bob Booth Dawn Piech \nIf you’ve registered and want to cancel\, please go to this page to cancel

SUMMARY:South and West 600K
DESCRIPTION:This will be the first time we’ve run this event since 2019. It’s the standard format for a 600K: 400K on the first day with a 200K second day and combines the 400K “Scale the Mound” with the 200K “Nowhere but Norwalk” routes. Here are the details: \n375.8 miles\, 16\,060 feet of climbing\, ACP sanctioned\nDay one 251.4 miles\, 10\,868 feet of climbing\, route here\nDay two 124.4 miles\, 5\,170 feet of climbing\, route here\nFull route here \nRide notes for day one: \nThis route is identical to the Going for the Green 300K route all the way to Hazel Green so there should be ample opportunity to ride with others for the first part of the ride. Most of the climbing on the route is stacked toward the last two thirds of the ride so make sure you don’t burn too many matches early in the ride! \nRefueling stops (usually controls) are well spaced along the route: \n– Boscobel 29 miles\n– Cassville 79 miles\n– Hazel Green 119 miles\n– Shullsburg 141 miles\n– Belmont 160.5 miles\n– Muscoda 200 miles\n– Spring Green 228 miles \nNote in particular the optional stop at Shullsburg. The stretch between Shullsburg and Belmont is tough\, especially if it’s hot and/or there’s a North wind! Whether or not you stop is up to you but don’t underestimate this stretch (or overestimate your reserves!). \nRide notes for day two: \nAgain\, opportunities for refueling are well spaced and usually at controls: \n– Yuba 19.9 miles – spigot on side of community center\n– Ontario 45.6 miles Cenex station\n– Norwalk 54.1 miles Convenience store (control)\n– Cashton 65.7 miles Convenience store (control)\n– Liberty 88.4 miles Liberty bar (control) – nice people who fill fill your bottles\n– Boaz 111.2 miles Convenience store \nTo register for this event: \n\n\n\nClick on the link below to complete a waiver.\nAfter completing the waiver you’ll be taken to PayPal (note that a PayPal account is not required)\n\n\n\nRegister \nNote that there will be no day of ride registration – advance registration is mandatory! \nYour registration is not complete until your completed waiver and PayPal payment is received. \n\n			Currently Registered\n				Be the first! \n			\n			\nIf you’ve registered and want to cancel\, please go to this page to cancel

SUMMARY:Going for the Green 300K
DESCRIPTION:This route is identical to the Scale the Mound 400K for the first 120 miles so riders will have the opportunity to ride with others for a considerable distance before the routes separate. The route has a moderate amount of climbing but also features some lengthy stretches on relatively flat roads or ridge tops so it’s fairly accessible for a 300K. \nThere are ample stops for refueling: \n– Boscobel 29.6 miles\n– Cassville 79.7 miles\n– Hazel Green 119.9 miles\n– Belmont 141 miles\n– Muscoda 180.9 miles \nACP sanctioned\, 192.3 miles\, 9\,361 feet of climbing\, Ridewithgps route here \nTo register for this event: \n\n\n\nClick on the link below to complete a waiver.\nAfter completing the waiver you’ll be taken to PayPal (note that a PayPal account is not required)\n\n\n\nRegister \nNote that there will be no day of ride registration – advance registration is mandatory! \nYour registration is not complete until your completed waiver and PayPal payment is received. \nCurrently RegisteredEric Peterson Andy Quandt Eric White Mark Preston \nIf you’ve registered and want to cancel\, please go to this page to cancel

SUMMARY:Fennimore 200K
DESCRIPTION:One of our favorite routes that we’ve ridden many times. We usually do it as a season opener since it includes long flat stretches with a few testing climbs – ideal for early season fitness. This time we should all have our legs (except of course\, for your faithful servant) so it should be a very pleasant ride. \nThe route includes an open control in Fennimore where you can either do a quick stop at one of the convenience stores (Kwik Trip or Casey’s) or have lunch at the Subway. There are ample stops on the route for refueling: \n– Boscobel 29.7 miles\n– Fennimore 52.5 miles\n– Muscoda 75.8 miles\n– Spring Green 103.8 miles \n127 miles\, 4096 feet of climbing\, ACP certified.

SUMMARY:Summertime Super 8 Silliness
DESCRIPTION:The 8K600K A.K.A “The Super 8” (my term which you have to admit is catchier than the ACP moniker “BRM of 600K with 8000 meters of climbing”) is newly formulated beginning in late 2022. The new rules are that it be an ACP approved 600K with 8\,000 meters of climbing as verified by OpenRunner. Other than that\, all of the “normal” brevet rules apply: 40 hours to complete\, no support except at controls\, etc. \nAn 8K600K is one of the requirements for an R10000 award which is the capstone award given by the ACP. \nWe all knew the Driftless was hilly but here’s proof! This route meets all the requirements for the 8K600K. Make no mistake – this one is a toughie so you’d best be prepared for a lot of climbing and not a lot of stopped time. \nHere’s the route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/41074277 \nAnd here’s the brevet card \nand here are the stats (from OpenRunner): 606 Km\, 8\,166 meters of climbing. \nSee this page for important details about the ride. \n\nRegistration for this event is closed. \nCurrently RegisteredMichael Mullery Fred Tompkin \nIf you’ve registered and want to cancel\, please go to this page to cancel

SUMMARY:Excelsior! Populaire
DESCRIPTION:I developed this route a few years ago as a special favor for a friend who then never rode it. \nSo you get to be the first! This is a beautiful route that includes the famous Excelsior climb that was included as part of the Coulee Challenge 1200K. You can test your climbing skills against the Coulee riders although in fairness they were on day 2 at that point 😉 \nHere are the details: \n70.2 miles\, 3\,472 feet of climbing\, RUSA sanctioned\, ridewithgps route here \nTo register for this event: \n\n\n\nClick on the link below to complete a waiver.\nAfter completing the waiver you’ll be taken to PayPal (note that a PayPal account is not required)\n\n\n\nRegister \nNote that there will be no day of ride registration – advance registration is mandatory! \nYour registration is not complete until your completed waiver and PayPal payment is received. \nCurrently RegisteredSalvador Ortiz \nIf you’ve registered and want to cancel\, please go to this page to cancel

SUMMARY:Cranberry Country 600K
DESCRIPTION:This is “Version 2” of an event that we’ve held several times. The original route was the classic 400/200K split with considerably more climbing on day 2. Although quite a few riders finished the old version (and quite a few didn’t!) the general feedback was the 400K first day followed by a hard 200K second day was a big ask. \nV2 breaks things up a little differently. The first day is shorter than it was in the original version of the route\, the second day is therefore longer (it’s still a 600K!) but has less climbing (in feet/mile) than the original version. Here’s the brief: \nACP sanctioned\, 373.7 miles\, 14\,015 feet of climbing\, full ridewithgps route here\nDay one route here\nDay two route here \nA few notes about the ride: \nAlthough it appears there’s a long way from the start to the first control at Norwalk (49.8 miles)\, there are a couple of opportunities to refill bottles or refuel: \n\n\n\n\n\nNote the POI at Yuba (19 miles). There’s a water spigot on the side of the community center building.\nThere’s a convenience store (Cenex) in Ontario at 41 miles.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Central Express in Cashton (mile 170) closes at 22:00. Most riders should be able to make it there and they have the usual c-store fare. If you don’t think you’ll be able to get there before they close you can stock up at West Salem (145 miles) but note that the food you take on there is going to need to get you to the day one finish at 223 miles so if in doubt – stock up! \nThere are soda machines (with water) at La Farge (188 miles) so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to have singles or change to purchase water/soda from the machine. The control is likely to be closed for all but the fastest riders. \nAs noted on the route\, there’s a water fountain at Boaz (212 miles) in the pavilion. \nTo register for this event: \n\n\n\nClick on the link below to complete a waiver.\nAfter completing the waiver you’ll be taken to PayPal (note that a PayPal account is not required)\n\n\n\nRegister \nNote that there will be no day of ride registration – advance registration is mandatory! \nYour registration is not complete until your completed waiver and PayPal payment is received. \n\n			Currently Registered\n				Be the first! \n			\n			\nIf you’ve registered and want to cancel\, please go to this page to cancel

DESCRIPTION:The brief for this ride is the same as the Norwalk\, Wildcat Mountain and Cranberry Country rides: challenging but not overly brutal climbs mixed with long stretches on ridge tops and rolling through river valleys.

SUMMARY:Wildcat Mountain Wander 300K
DESCRIPTION:This was a new route for 2017 which shares the first few miles with our “Back in Black (River Falls) 400K” route so riders can roll out together. The controls for the first 90 miles are the same and there’s considerable overlap between the routes so riders doing any of the events typically held on this day should get a number of opportunities to see other riders during the first part of the ride. \nThe route has some testing climbs\, especially the long climb up the eponymous Wildcat Mountain\, but nothing too severe. Ridewithgps reports 7115 feet of climb in the 195 mile distance for an average of 36 feet/mile which is generally considered “hilly”. There aren’t any “shift all the way down and grind” sorts of climbs\, mostly “pick your gear and spin” (assuming of course you aren’t riding a 39×25 as your easiest gear!). \nThere are plenty of food opportunities along the route with c-stores and/or restaurants available in Ontario\, Norwalk\, Warrens\, Sparta\, Cashton and LaFarge. This being the small town midwest you can expect everything to fold up at 22:00 so plan your food/water stops accordingly. \nThis is a lovely route on mostly quiet two-lane roads. Try it\, you’ll like it! \n187.2 miles\, 8022 feet of climbing\, ACP certified \nRidewithgps link: here \nTo register for this event: \n\n\n\nClick on the link below to complete a waiver.\nAfter completing the waiver you’ll be taken to PayPal (note that a PayPal account is not required)\n\n\n\nRegister \nNote that there will be no day of ride registration – advance registration is mandatory! \nYour registration is not complete until your completed waiver and PayPal payment is received. \n\n			Currently Registered\n				Be the first! \n			\n			\nIf you’ve registered and want to cancel\, please go to this page to cancel

SUMMARY:Stoughton 600K
DESCRIPTION:Note that there’s been a change of start location from Fitchburg to Stoughton but other than the changes needed to remove the segment to the old start location and add the cues to get to/from the start in Stoughton the route is otherwise the same. \nAs noted on the 400K\, we did this route for the first time in 2022 and the weather gods were not at all kind with cold temperatures and pouring rain. Fingers crossed for better weather this year! \nThe ride starts at the Kwik Trip in Stoughton and heads east across the Lower Yahara River Trail boardwalk as we make our way out to Holy Hill through the Loew Lake Unit of the Kettle Moraine State Forest. From this high point of SE WI\, we descend our way through Sinissippi Lake and the Horicon Marsh before we turn back towards home through the classic bucolic countryside of Southern WI to where we started for a few hours sleep before heading out on day 2. \nThe second day will take us back across the boardwalk out to East Troy and up through the Southern Unit of the Kettles before making the turn back home. \nNote that there are two hotels adjacent to the Kwik Trip start: \nA Tru by Hilton: (608)-205-2566\nA Quality Inn (608)-205-4201 \nRiders are responsible for their own reservations. \nThis is an ACP sanctioned event. 379.8 miles\, 13\,882feet of climbing.\nRidewithgps full route here\nDay One here\nDay Two here\nBrevet card here \nAt 36ft/mi this isn’t a hilly route by typical Driftless standards\, but bring your legs\, just in case! \nMany thanks to Andy Quandt for his work developing this route! \nComplete the registration form below.

SUMMARY:E-F Huntin' 600K
DESCRIPTION:This is “version 2” of this route and we’ve done this one several times. The principle change we made to create version 2 was a somewhat shortened day one with a consequently longer day 2.  \nThis is a challenging but fun route. It has several long climbs – not “crazy steep” but rather ones where you can pick whatever gear you’re comfortable in and spin your way up if you choose or you can make a harder effort knowing you won’t hit a “wall”.  \nThe route also includes a number of longer sections rolling along on ridge tops or river valleys and features a lot of the memorable scenery we love about riding in the Driftless.  \nThe route is designed to be ridden in 2 days with an intervening overnight in “the Big City” to rest and refuel. Both of the hotel choices (the Ramada or Center Lodge) have refrigerators and microwaves in the room so you can stock up with whatever you want after finishing day one and before heading out for day two. Should you not want to do this\, the Kwik Trip on Seminary St is open 24 hours so you can pick up something there. \nACP sanctioned\, 376 miles\, 16\,748 feet of climbing \nDay One here\nDay Two here\nBrevet card here \nComplete the registration form below. You’ll receive an email which will contain a link to complete a waiver electronically and a PayPal link to pay for the ride.

SUMMARY:Off to Elkader 400K
DESCRIPTION:One of our favorite 400K routes. This one takes you through Muscoda then features a beautiful stretch on CR-G over to Fennimore followed by an even nicer section from Fennimore over to Prairie du Chien with a long stretch along the Green River before a couple of challenging climbs on CR-C. We’ll then cross the Mississippi at PdC and you know what that means! Any time you go East or West from the Mississippi your next destination is “up” as you climb away from the river. You’re rewarded with some beautiful views before turning Westward toward Elkader with a nice stop at the control for lunch should you choose a longer break. Then it’s North through Monona (lots of rollers and generally uphill – this stretch can be tough with a North wind!) where a break at the Casey’s is suggested before heading on to the next control at Lansing. \nLeaving Lansing there’s that “cross the Mississippi” thing again with the requisite climb away from the river before heading toward Viroqua. This is a fairly tough stretch\, your RBA has done it in both directions and it’s a toughie both ways! At Viroqua you can either stop at the Kwik Trip or any other place that appeals to you (Culver’s\, Dairy Queen\, Community Co-Op\, etc) as it’s an open control. \nThen we’ll head off to Ontario. There’s a convenience store there but unless you’re pretty quick it’s likely to be closed. You can either stop at the bar for food or there’s a place on your brevet card & cue sheet where you can top up water bottles (it’s an info control). Leaving Ontario\, we’ll head back to Richland Center. \nThe total distance is 255.7 miles with 13\,050 feet of climbing according to ridewithgps. \nThe ridewithgps route is here.\nBrevet card here \nComplete the registration form below. You’ll receive an email with a PayPal link to complete your registration. Note that a PayPal account is not required to register. Also note that for 2020 there will be no day of ride registration – advance registration is mandatory! \nYour registration is not complete until your completed waiver and PayPal payment is received. \nImportant note: If you register and don’t receive an email confirmation check your spam folder!

SUMMARY:Wildcat Mountain Wander 300K
DESCRIPTION:This was a new route for 2017 which shares the first few miles with our “Back in Black (River Falls) 400K” route so riders can roll out together. The controls for the first 90 miles are the same and there’s considerable overlap between the routes so riders doing any of the events typically held on this day should get a number of opportunities to see other riders during the first part of the ride. \nThe route has some testing climbs\, especially the long climb up the eponymous Wildcat Mountain\, but nothing too severe. Ridewithgps reports 7115 feet of climb in the 195 mile distance for an average of 36 feet/mile which is generally considered “hilly”. There aren’t any “shift all the way down and grind” sorts of climbs\, mostly “pick your gear and spin” (assuming of course you aren’t riding a 39×25 as your easiest gear!). \nThere are plenty of food opportunities along the route with c-stores and/or restaurants available in Ontario\, Norwalk\, Warrens\, Sparta\, Cashton and LaFarge. This being the small town midwest you can expect everything to fold up at 22:00 so plan your food/water stops accordingly. \nThis is a lovely route on mostly quiet two-lane roads. Try it\, you’ll like it! \n187.2 miles\, 8022 feet of climbing\, ACP certified \nRidewithgps link: here\nBrevet card: here \nComplete the registration form below. You’ll receive an email which will contain a link to complete a waiver electronically and a PayPal link to pay for the ride. Note that there will be no day of ride registration – advance registration is mandatory! \nYour registration is not complete until your completed waiver and PayPal payment is received. \nImportant note: If you register and don’t receive an email confirmation check your spam folder!
