Why is RAW not going point to point this year?
Although RAW has always been a point to point ride, there are many reasons for these changes: we want to show off more of the amazing cycling in our state, we want to give communities that are not on the border the opportunity to “host”, we want more daylight, and – yes- we just want to try something new.
Will transportation be provided?
No. You are responsible for getting yourself, bike and luggage to and from Eau Claire.
Will there be rest stops along the route?
Absolutely! We'll have rest stops set up approximately every 20 miles, offering hydration and fueling options. Along the way, you'll have the chance to experience some of the area’s most unique and picturesque spots.
What is the pricing structure for 2025?
RAW will continue to be a pay-per-mile format, either 180 miles or 100 miles, plus taxes and fees.
Price increase will occur on April 1st (+$25) and July 1st (+$50).
What is the minimum age for RAW?
Participants must be 16 or older. Participants younger than 18 years old at the time of the event must have waivers signed, and be accompanied, by a parent/supervisor.
What accommodations are there?
We have worked with a number of recommended hotels in the Eau Claire area. These hotels can be found on the Details drop down menu under lodging.
