Grand Illinois Bike Tour

Join us June 12, 2022 through June 17, 2022 for the 19th annual Grand Illinois Bike Tour (GIBT)! Our 2022 loop will tour the heart of central Illinois. We will start and end at McLean County’s Comlara County Park with overnights in East Peoria (one night), Normal (two nights) and Pontiac (two nights). Join us and invite your friends (non-riding volunteers needed too).

Choose among our daily mileage options for a total between 200 to 380 miles, consisting mainly of quiet rural roads as well as some paved trails around Bloomington-Normal and East Peoria. Pick between our camping and hotel options, and enjoy evenings filled with good food and socializing with riders from around the country. Proceeds benefit Ride Illinois, a nonprofit bicycle advocacy organization, and support our mission to make Illinois better through biking.
