Here's the route we'll use, RUSA sanctioned, 103 km, 1,693 feet of climbing. The route is the … Continue reading "Ten Year Anniversary!"

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. We'll be doing the … Continue reading "Driftless Rouleur 100K"

A new route to kick off the 2025 randonneuring season! A bit more climbing than our traditional season opening route (the Fennimore Frolic) but since we're getting a later start we should all have gotten in enough early season mileage to get it done. The clockwise route starts in the back parking lot of the … Continue reading "Baraboo Bound 200K"

The longer version of our season opening 200K route. This one is exactly the same through the first 100+ miles to Muscoda then continues on for a bit more distance (and a good bit more climbing!). Here are the stats: ACP certified, 303.4 km, 8,346 feet of climbing (44 feet/mile). The ridewithgps route is here … Continue reading "Baraboo and Beyond 300K"

Last time we tried this route (in 2024) the weather was pretty uncooperative so in true randonneuring style we're going to keep plugging away at it 'til we get it done! Why? Because it's one of the most beautiful routes in the Driftless - that's why! Here are the details: 206.1 km, 5,354 feet of … Continue reading "Where Fledglings Dare 200K"

As noted in the "companion route" for this ride, the last time we held it the weather was pretty dreadful and we all wisely decided to put it in the can and save it for later. Later has arrived! One of the nice things about these two routes is they're exactly the same until the … Continue reading "Where Eagles Dare 300K"
