About Rapha Chicago
Chicago’s cycling history is long and storied. It was once the bicycle-building capital of the USA, has been home to 10 velodromes over the years, and still produces weather-hardened riders who play a part in a strong cycling culture. In keeping with the city’s cycling tradition, the Clubhouse is well-placed for access to the city’s riding, whether that be early morning intervals near Lake Shore or longer excursions past the northern suburbs. The Rapha Cycling Club (RCC) chapter runs regular rides out of the city along some of the best and lesser-known roads.

      The Classic Sunday Ride. Exit the city via California/Crawford into the idyllic tree-lined streets of Hubbard Woods. The ride then enters the beautiful Skokie Lagoons with an optional sprint section. Return on Sheridan Rd rounding the iconic Baha’i temple before returning on Damen Ave.

      The Des Plaines River Trail offers the best gravel within riding distance of the Chicago clubhouse. Majestic hardwood forests provide ample protection from the summer sun, and the trail has just enough technical features to delight even the most experienced riders.
