About riding in Wisconsin
Wisconsin is known for rolling dairy farmland, especially in the hilly southwest 'Driftless' area, and quiet county roads. Climbs are short but frequent. Late spring through early fall is the riding season.
Estimated finish times
The route is about 124 miles. Here is the moving time at a steady average speed. It is a flat-ground baseline: climbing, wind, stops at aid stations and group riding all move the real number, so treat it as a starting range.
| Average speed | Moving time |
|---|---|
| 10 mph | 12h 26m |
| 12 mph | 10h 22m |
| 14 mph | 8h 53m |
| 16 mph | 7h 46m |
| 18 mph | 6h 54m |
Most recreational riders average 12–16 mph on rolling terrain in a group, and less on hilly routes.
