Strade Bianche Rouleur Challenge – Stockton 100K

We celebrate the history of our sport by riding the “white roads” in Northwestern Illinois. Completion of this ride will count for the RUSA Rouleur award and pick up some Gravel K’s!

This is the second weekend of our “Strade Bianche Rouleur Challenge”.

We’ll start later than normal so you can drive to the start on the morning of the ride. After the ride we’ll have an informal gathering for dinner and beverages where we can review the days activities (also known as “talk about how great we are”) and discuss the next days ride.

The route will start and finish in Stockton, Il. This is a relatively easy gravel route but 28mm tires or greater are recommended for easier negotiation of the gravel sections. Roughly 23% of the route is on gravel including some gravelly climbs so we’ll get the full experience. We’ll be using the RUSA “gravel timer” to account for the somewhat slower pace on the gravel segments.

There are ample stops to refuel and refresh water bottles along the route including an optional stop at the Pecatonia Tap House in Warren if you’re so inclined.

The ridewithgps route is here.

This is going to be a fun weekend of riding and you won’t want to miss it!
