Big Bull Falls Grand Fondo

Ride Your Challenge. Ride for a Cause.

Whether you're chasing your first long-distance ride, riding with friends, or looking to test your legs on a century, the Big Bull Falls Grand Fondo offers an unforgettable cycling experience through the scenic roads of Central Wisconsin.

Choose from 35, 73, or 101 miles, enjoy fully supported routes, well-stocked rest stops, and a delicious post-ride meal—all while helping support Bridge Street Mission and NAMI Northwoods.

This isn't a race. It's a celebration of cycling, community, and personal accomplishment. Ride at your own pace, challenge yourself as much as you'd like, and enjoy every mile.
