Riders’ Comments

Perfect ride food at the rest stops, especially the pickles and pickle juice

I was thankful for the SAG support when I had a flat!

I wish that other ride organizers would ride Ride The Ridges. THIS is how to run a ride!

Gorgeous ride

The ride is scenic and challenging. The planning and execution are great. Winona is a great place to visit and a great drive from the Twin Cities.

Hard to find a wider variety of challenges including climbing in the state of MN

Beautiful course, great rest stops, friendly helpful volunteers!

The steady Eddie enjoys the landscapes

Best scenery and organized ride in the Midwest

I was just thinking this morning that I wouldn’t have needed to bring anything. The stops had dill pickle shots, Clif bars, sandwiches… it was awesome.

It was a great ride with just enough of a challenge, beautiful scenery!

Extremely well organized.

The routes were very clearly marked.

Almost every time my friend and I pulled over to take a water break or fix my bike chain, people would kindly ask if we needed help!

Wonderfully done, great signage, rest stops filled with happy crews and good refreshments and food.

Routes were well marked, challenging and dynamic

Do you like hills?

It was very well put together. The sign markers were very easy to read and the stops were so well put together. I also felt comfortable safety wise as there were many different support vehicles seen throughout the course.

The fact that it’s a ride, not a race, means you can really enjoy the beauty of the region and take your time at the rest stops and make new friends.

Ride organization was outstanding as was the post ride food
