Support & Preparation

Ride support

Rest and water stops will be evenly placed along the route to keep you going strong.

Rest stops provide water, fruit, light snacks and port-a-potties. If you have any special dietary needs or need more than a light snack, feel free to bring your own food to the event. Water stops simply provide water and portable restrooms.

Volunteers will be available to guide you along the route and help out if you get a flat or need a quick bike adjustment.

Preparing for the ride

Proper preparation for the Four-Star Bike Tour will go a long way toward your full enjoyment of Chicago’s best bicycle ride.

Get your bike ready to ride.

Before the ride, do a safety check to make sure your bike is in good working order or take it to your local bike shop and have them look it over.
