Chicago Randonneurs exist to promote the welfare and development of recreational long-distance, self-supported endurance cycling in the Chicagoland area. Activities are primarily organized rides, focused on safety and camaraderie while challenging riders to expand their interests in the sport of randonneuring throughout the USA and the world. We aim to bring randonneuring to Chicago but also to bring Chicago to the world of randonneuring. We welcome anyone interested in long-distance cycling regardless of race, color, creed, gender identity, or disability status. All are welcome.
