The 32nd Annual Maumee River Ride is back—and after last year’s incredible turnout, we’re rolling into 2026 with even more energy, more impact, and yes… more parking.
This event continues to be our largest club fundraiser of the year, and thanks to your generosity in 2025, we were able to donate 70% of all proceeds to bikes for kids. You’ve already seen the lives we’re changing. As you plan your ride this year, we invite you to once again consider our mission and the difference your contribution makes.

About This Sport
Endurance Grid is here to help you understand the sport, decide if it’s the right fit, and learn how to prepare. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer’s event page.
Cycling events range from casual gran fondos to competitive road races. What they share is the sustained effort of putting miles behind you under your own power.
It's a sport that rewards pacing judgment as much as raw fitness. If you're new to cycling events, a local bike shop fitting is worth the investment.
