Ride Across Wisconsin is known an absolute EPIC ride and the 2022 route certainly did not disappoint. The route included the Elroy-Sparta trail, the Wisconsin 400 trail, the Glacial Drumlin State Trail and more. The support provided by Wheel & Sprocket as well as a host of other bike shops is phenomenal. All proceeds benefit the Wisconsin Bike Fed which does amazing work to enhance all types of riding opportunities in Wisconsin. The whole family came along on the adventure and we even adopted ‪@TheVCAdventures‬ for our trip across the state to the start line. We all had fun, but for sure riding 235 miles across this breathtaking state was the crown jewel. I loved it and can't wait to do it again!

Hey, I saw myself! At 6:02, you passed a muddy crash. The guy who crashed was none other than John Burke, the president of Trek Bicycle. He was right in front of me when it happened. By the time you passed, he was up and walking, but hurt. I'm in the Eddy Merckx replica jersey on the right side of the trail, next to John Burke in the red/white/blue "Forward" jersey. It was a wet, greasy day on those dirt trails for sure. Lots of people went down.

Currently on the fence if I should do rideacrosswisconsin in 2023 or not. I think this video convinced me that I should at least do the first leg from La Crosse to the Dells

It was a blast, really well run and I loved the trail section, but it had a share of people that didn't - right bike = good times

Did you ride RAW? Tell me about it (or ask a question)

@dimforest Жыл бұрын

Maybe a dumb question but did anybody there have flat bars?

@BrianDavisraces Жыл бұрын

Oh absolutely. Many riders on hybrids but I suspect they were doing the shorter route options.

Lol. You can see I sorta hesitated on that statement. In my head I was thinking - like compared to car racing or cocaine then yeah it’s cheap. Lololol. Good catch Jon

Try 1200 miles in three weeks 24 times 500 miles in 7 days. 41 times from head waters of the Wisconsin River to the Mississippi. Try that after riding in Georgia across Georgia 500 miles two weeks before Wisconsin coming from Virginia cycling 600 miles 8 day all in the month of June 19 86 thru 2018. That’s just June then onto July and Iowa cycling from the Mississippi to the start of ragbrai across Iowa to the Mississippi then up to Minnesota for 500 mile 7 day averaging 8,000 miles a year for 45 years over 360 -across state bicycles rides, 500 mile events good job though keep track of your miles, maybe you’ll catch up with me I just cross the 300,250 miles 55 years of cycling 18 country’s, 47 states just think you have 46 more states to ride.

I’m not sure if I missed you mentioning it. But what tires did you run? And would they be your tire of choice for next time?

@BrianDavisraces Жыл бұрын

Good question. I used my CX bike so that was 33cm tires with a lil tread on the sides and file tread down the center. I did a preview video on RAW too where I talk more about the bike/tire choices for this ride. If I were doing the 1 day I would have to go road tire 28 but on the 2 I knew the pace would be slower (for me at least) so I could go with more tire. I think overall 28-32 touring tire would be the best choice on this route for 2 day

@wadelink97 Жыл бұрын

What width tires did you ride and with all the accidents, would you recommend a different width or tread?

@BrianDavisraces Жыл бұрын

I think I was on CX tires around 33 which was great for me, but if it was dry you can easily run 25's...the tunnels are sketchy no matter the weather, but the rest is easy if it is dry. If wet, slow the F down and dont ride in packs. I have to say A LOT of the crashing could have been prevented with that advice.

Was that Bryant Kelly at 3:08 ish?

I think he did race the lake instead. Not 100% sure
