Now in its 48^th year, the Swedish Days ride remains one of the premier road bike tours held in the Chicago area. The ride starts and finishes behind Central High School, near Burlington, Illinois. The school is located on Plato Road, 1 mile west of IL Route 47 and approximately 8 miles south of I–90 (44W625 Plato Road, Hampshire, IL 60109 for gps maps). From here all routes travel quiet and scenic paved roads of rural Kane County. The terrain is mostly flat, with the occasional hill. Along the way enjoy frequent rest stops stocked with thirst-quenching beverages and energizing food; including selections of fruits, breads, and our famous homemade cookies.

Discounted advance registration (through June 4th):  $25 for a single rider and $40 for a family (1 or 2 adults, children under 18). Starting June 5th: $30 for a single rider and $50 for a family.
