Service Overview
Are you planning on participating in the world famous Register's Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa (RAGBRAI®) tour but not sure how to get there? Good thing we've got you covered!
Bicycle Illinois is pleased to offer transportation service for you, your bicycle, and your baggage from downtown Chicago to the start of RAGBRAI® as well as from the end of RAGBRAI® back to Chicago. We are proud to be an officially endorsed RAGBRAI® charter service based within the city of Chicago. No one prides themselves on outstanding service more than our professional staff or can support you in Chicago better than us!
Let us take care of the driving for you and make your RAGBRAI® experience the best one possible—right from the start! Before the ride, take advantage of socializing and relaxing you with other RAGBRAI® participants in a comfortable environment, while avoiding the stress of driving a long distance, which can leave you worn out and tired. After the ride, imagine being able to unwind and recover after a long week of cycling in our bus back to Chicago!
Our staging location in downtown Chicago is extremely accessible, and is centrally located to all public transportation options (trains, buses, airlines). Travelling with us is carefree and convenient no matter if you call home in the city, the suburbs, across the country, or around the world!
RAGBRAI® is a phenomenal, one-of-a-kind cycling event, and we’re looking forward to helping you to make it a great adventure! Come join the Bicycle Illinois team this summer!
