Ride for Joe (August)

August 6, 2025 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM

A Smart Cycling Group Riding class.

Group recreational ride

These rides are in memory of Joe Imilkowski, long-time Fitchburg resident and avid bicyclist and senior center patron. These rides are geared for seniors, but all are welcome. Two distances will be offered, about 12 and about 20 miles, principally on multi-use paths. Helmets are required. Rides will start with a short safety briefing and ABC Quick Checks of bikes. On line registration and liability waiver are required, but can be done at ride time.

  •  9:45 Gather and sign waivers, if necessary
  • 10:00 Safety briefing, bike and helmet checks
  • 10:10 12- or 20-mile ride
  • 1:00 Approximate time to return to the Senior Center

The group may choose to stop for lunch or a snack, so bring cash or a credit card.

A daily or annual state trail pass is required when we ride on state trails, as we often do. Your ride leaders recommend that every Wisconsin resident who rides a bike buy an annual state trails pass to support our trails!
