It’s time to hit the trails and tunnels on the seventh annual Ride Across Wisconsin (RAW) bike ride. This year the full ride starts in La Crosse and ending in Milwaukee. There are also shorter trails to ride if that works better for you, ranging from 100 miles to 235 miles over a one- or two-day ride.

This ride will follow the Elroy Sparta Trail, pass through Wisconsin Dells and cross the Wisconsin River on a ferry. For all the one-day riders headed for Milwaukee, their ride will end at the Twisted Fisherman for a tropical-themed celebration. The two-day riders will end at the Harley Davidson Museum.

There are stops along the route to eat, sleep, and even charge your e-bike. There are luggage shuttling services so you don’t have to ride with lots of gear and supplies. This year, there is an Amtrak ride and a Motorcoach ride to take you from the Dells back to La Crosse.
