Fox River Trail
August 16, 2025
9:00 AM

Heat index on Saturday may be over 100 so we're doing a nearby ride with lots of options and a lot of shade. Join us for a ride from Elgin to Crystal Lake on the Fox River Trail/Prairie Trail. We'll turn around at the Crystal Lake gazebo. All paved, mostly flat. Casual ride, no one left behind. We'll wait for the library to open before we leave Elgin so we can take advantage of the restrooms.

Your option to turn around sooner depending on your available time and energy since you can't get lost on the way back. (Turn around in Dundee for 10 miles, or in Crystal Lake for 20 miles.) You can also start with us from the Dundee Depot at about 9:30 AM, giving 20 miles to the gazebo and back.

Please arrive 15 minutes early to prepare.

Reminders: Helmets are expected safety gear. Bikes are expected to be in good condition. Guests are welcome to join us for one ride but are expected to join the club for additional rides (insurance requirements). Fountains may be disabled so bring enough water. Please carry emergency contact info.
