  • Location: 1701 N Lincoln Memorial Dr, Milwaukee WI 53202, United States

Event Details

Come on out and kickoff the GCC with a ride out to The Buzz Cafe in Kenosha!

We will gather at the Colectivo on the lakefront (1701 N Lincoln Memorial Dr, Milwaukee, WI 53202) and ride out to The Buzz Cafe (5621 6th Ave, Kenosha, WI 53140) and back to Colectivo. Expect the ride to be about 70 miles.

I would like this to be somewhat spirited at a ~16mph pace (it would be great to finish by lunch time!). Please be aware of your limitations with the distance, and bring ride snacks and water. We can stop along the way according to the needs of the group. We will be riding on the road so make sure you are comfortable riding in a group, in traffic.

You can find the route on Komoot: https://www.komoot.com/tour/62539900?ref=wtd

When at Colectivo, look for Brent. I ride a blue Ritchey Road Logic. For any questions, please contact me at brentmazurek@gmail.com.

This ride will continue despite the weather tomorrow. We can make a decision at the coffee shop if we need to postpone a little bit, but it will not be rescheduled. I'm hopeful that the weather will work with us a little!

This is awesome. I am one of the owners of The Buzz. This is my second year with GCC. I'm going to try to rearrange my schedule to meet you guys in Milwaukee and ride the first half.

Thanks for Riding for such a good cause and visiting The Buzz!

Hey all,

I did some recon and followed the Komoot recommended route to Kenosha this weekend. It went well, and was very scenic. There's a lot of big roads, but there's plenty of shoulder space and not *too* much traffic.

Here's the link for the route:
