WiMi Wish Ride Postponed Until 2026
We’ve made the difficult decision to postpone the WiMi Wish Ride until 2026.
While we were incredibly excited for this inaugural collaboration between Make-A-Wish Michigan and Wisconsin, rider interest didn’t reach the level needed to bring the ride to life this year. Rather than push forward with limited participation, we’re hitting pause so we can make some exciting updates and come back even stronger next year.
In 2026, we’ll return with a refreshed format, more opportunities to get involved, and even more ways to support children and families through Make-A-Wish.
To those who expressed interest, supported our planning, or contributed behind the scenes - thank you. We’re beyond grateful for your passion and dedication, and we can’t wait to ride with you in 2026.
Stay tuned for updates, and keep your wheels ready!
- The WiMi Wish Ride Team
Join us for an exciting bike ride to raise funds for Make-A-Wish Wisconsin and Make-A-Wish Michigan. Proceeds from this event will help grant life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses.
* Day 1: Ride from Marinette, WI, at 8:00 AM to Kingsford, MI.
* Day 2: Ride from Kingsford, MI, at 8:00 AM to Marinette, WI.
There is a $100 registration fee (after 7/1/2026, the fee is $125). Riders must raise at least $550 in donations to qualify for the ride.
As part of the registration, all riders will receive a team cycling jersey, an event t-shirt, and a certificate.
Online registration closes on August 1, 2026, or when the 200-rider limit is reached, whichever comes first. We expect to get the 200-rider limit before August 7, and if this occurs, we will close registrations, so register early!
