Illinois Amish Country
Bob Galloway Memorial
Bicycle Tour

Every September, along with the leadership of the Decatur Bicycle Club, well over 500 biking enthusiasts descend on South of ArthurIllinois Amish Country's flat and scenic terrain to ride... and eat!

 

 

The ride consists of 10, 25, 50 or 100 mile loops around the Arthur area. Generally flat terrain makes for easy riding and a family friendly ride.

 

 

 

 

 

The "eat" part  usually includes a pancake breakfast to start, plenty of snacks and supplies along the route, and then the highlight- a full meal served to riders by the local Mennonite school. Plenty of good food with noodles, church peanut butter and a lot more.

This is a family friendly ride in the main with flat short loops, but with the 60 and 40 miles loops being separate, there is opportunity for your century ride, and still make it to lunch.

 

 

 

 

 

 

There is always something to do in Arthur!
