Ride the Rivers is BACK and better than ever!

We're launching from a beautiful new home base: Spanish Lake Park, one of North St. Louis County's most historic and scenic parks. Two new routes take you along the rivers that define this region, with upgraded fuel at every rest stop and a full celebratory lunch waiting at the finish line.

New Routes!

Century Ride: You'll cross the Mississippi on the historic Grafton Ferry, ride the Illinois River Road, and roll along the Riverfront Trail, experiencing both the Missouri and Mississippi rivers in a single epic day.

Metric Century: You’ll enjoy a great exploration of the Missouri River, weaving along its banks through some of the most scenic terrain in the region. Note: Due to construction near the Chain of Rocks Bridge, this year's metric route focuses exclusively on the Missouri River and does not include a ferry crossing. We're monitoring construction progress and will update routes if conditions allow.

Upgraded Rest Stops

We've raised the bar on ride-day fuel. Expect peanut butter and honey sandwiches, fresh fruit, Pickle Juice, and a few surprise treats to keep you rolling.

Finish Line Celebration

Cool down in the shade of the Spanish Lake pavilions with ice-cold Perennial Artisan Ales, Fitz's soda and root beer, and a full lunch. You earned it.
