The Swedish Days Ride is the premier cycling event in Northern Illinois and the signature event of the Fox Valley Bicycle & Ski Club (FVBSC). Now in its 54th year, the Swedish Days Ride travels the quiet, scenic and relatively flat paved roads of rural Kane, Kendall and DeKalb counties, meandering through cornfields and through shaded thoroughfares. 

The Swedish Days Ride offers five routes ranging from 25 miles to the iconic Double Metric Century (131 miles), providing a “just right” distance for cycling families to competitive athletes. The ride is fully supported with one centralized rest stop boasting AC/indoor facilities stocked with nutritional items served in a COVID-responsible manner, onsite morning emergency mechanical support and bicycle supplies, and roaming SAG patrol vehicles. With over 75 helpful volunteers, the Swedish Days Ride provides a superior riding experience to approximately 800 guests each year.

FVBSC donates all net proceeds from this event to support organizations promoting safe cycling, education, advocacy, infrastructure development and cycling for people with disabilities, such as the League of American Bicyclists, Ride Illinois, Rails-To-Trails Conservancy, Illinois Prairie Path, Project Mobility and Easter Seals. Our event has no affiliation with the Geneva Chamber of Commerce’s Swedish Days Festival.
