Follow the Fox Bike Ride from Batavia to Lake Geneva

This is not a FVBSC ride, this is a charity ride for Cal's Angels.

About the Event - Follow the Fox Bike Ride 2023

This is a Heart & Soul Fund charity ride, that endeavors to maximize the fun on the journey to Lake Geneva.  We want you to ride and stop well, meaning  we have found for you some of the best places to eat, drink and find out what makes this trail so unique along the Fox river. It is 62 mile ride (a metric century). SAG support is included and optional return transportation is available (ticket must be purchased for return ride). Cal’s Angels will be our focus, as we raise money the kids and their families who are battling pediatric cancer.

This is a 62-mile bike ride from Batavia, IL to Lake Geneva, WI along the beautiful Fox river trail. The ride is at the pace of the slowest rider and has multiple rest stops along the way to enjoy the unique and fun cities & towns on the Fox river. There is a SAG wagon and optional return transportation available (ticket must be purchased for return ride). The ride is a perfect introduction for someone to make their first ride over 50 miles, in fact it is a metric century 100 kilometers=62 miles.

Cal’s Angels and the Batavia Bike Commission will be our focus, as we raise money and generate awareness for these partners.
