Maybe similar to this bike!

Rides are open to all abilities and we'll have a fast group and a fun group with ride guides to make sure nobody gets dropped (in the Dead (Sven) River). Be prepared for the weather. We ride rain snow or shine!

Saturday

Gather up starting at 2 pm to get your bikes and gear ready. We roll out for the beach cruise at 4pm, so if you have a room, you can check-in before or after the ride. At 4:00 we’ll derby and then head down the beach to the dead river. At the dead river we’ll toast the great gnome spirit and then head back as the sunsets.

The 5 pm gravel dinner ride will be ridden at a medium pace and you’re gonna need a light and a wallet if you wanna buy drinks or a fish sammich at the wharf. The party starts at 7:30, so there is a two and a half hour window to ride and grab a bite. (If you do the gravel ride) - Once we reach the marina, You can stay with the group and eat at The Tropics, or break off and do your own thing. We have a list of recommendations below that are all within pedaling distance on Sheridan Road. The hotel also has a restaurant if you decide to lay back and chill.

Zion eats along the return route:

  • Baily’s Supper Club- Door County inspired menu. Nice sit down atmosphere
  • Hillary’s BBQ - This place is legendary for a reason, with locations in Zion and Waukegan.
  • Pizza House - Serving up the best pizza in the area since 1974
  • Zogos Sports Bar and Grill - Quality American Classics meets onsite gambling
  • El Lago - Classic Mexican that also serves breakfast. Mmmmmmmmmm breakfast
  • Los 3 Hermanos - Great tacos located next to Zion Cyclery
  • CJ’s Doughnuts - Great doughnuts. It’s what’s for dinner.
  • And of course there’s all your standard McWendyKing fast food stuff.

The rest of the night is a big party with snacks and a cash bar. Music by DJ Nice - Dancing - and guaranteed silliness till midnight

Midnight - Howl at the Moon out on the beach

Sunday Morning

At around 9am get derbied by a little red-headed granny. Winner gets a prize!
