Prepare for an unforgettable cycling adventure in the heart of the Midwest. Whether you're a seasoned gravel racer or a casual rider seeking scenic thrills, our event promises an exhilarating experience for all.
The Old Fashioned Gravel ride/race is back for 2026! We are fortunate enough to have some of the best gravel riding in the Midwest and have put together four routes to show off the local terrain. As with all of our rides, we offer a little bit of everything and welcome EVERYONE from novice riders to the most seasoned racers. The focus of the ride is to bring like-minded individuals together for a great ride, but we will have professional timing so if you want to race we will have you covered too! Routes that will satisfy all of your gravely desires, and a post-ride gathering with food, drink, and hangs with new friends. Awards and prizes (everything from ridiculous to awesome) to follow the ride!
We will once again be at a venue in Hokah Minnesota, a rustic farm nestled in a scenic coulee. While the ride is about riding with other rad people like yourself, rest assured a portion of your entry fee will go to a local entity that could use a little financial help. If we can have a super fun time while helping others, that is what will make this a successful event. Hokah is a super cool little town, and we would love to help keep our money local.
All routes will leave and finish at the farm. The gravel is approximately two miles from the start line, and one mile of that is a paved climb, once you are on the ridge, the dust shall start flying! All routes will descend this paved section upon return to the finish line.
The Driftless Dagger is a self-supported bikepacking race through the rugged, untamed beauty of the Driftless Region.

Starting and finishing at Chestnut Mountain Resort in Galena, IL, this race is Death by a Thousand Cuts—relentless gravel, brutal climbs, and peaceful back roads that challenge your limits.

Welcome to the 2026 Driftless Gravel Festival!
We have teamed up with the ultra distance race, the Driftless Dagger, to form a weekend long festival in the most underrated cycling destination the Midwest. The party will get started on Friday afternoon with shakeout rides, a kids race, and packet pick up. The festival will take place at Chestnut Mountain Resort which is located in the heart of Driftless country while also overlooking the Mighty Mississippi.
The Galena territory was founded by resilient, industrious folks who put the area on the map by being the first major site of the mineral rush in the United States. They mined over 21 million pounds of lead in just a 3 year period. If you want to finish The Lead Ore, you’ll need the same tenacity that these early pioneers demonstrated. The Lead Ore will take place from Chestnut Mountain Resort which is situated smack dab in the middle of the Illinois driftless region. This is arguably the most scenic region Illinois has to offer. If you have never been to the Galena area, you're in for a surprise. The area offers many activities for couples and families. We recommend making a weekend out of this one and taking in the full experience. There are no refunds or deferrals. BikeReg does offer registration insurance at checkout.

Harley’s Hustle is an annual event in memory of our daughter, Harley McKenna, who passed away at 40 weeks and 1 day and was delivered stillborn on June 26th, 2018. We were blessed with the comfort and warmth of a community, professionals, and friends that gave us support through our grief. The stories are many and joyous. Nurses, doctors, funeral directors, community leaders, pastors, and more made such a positive impact. In an effort for us to pay it forward, add to Harley’s legacy, and work to see that we can spread awareness of the commonality of this event, Harley’s Hustle began.
Jack's Jog is inspired by a sweet baby boy named Jack and his mom's desire to keep his memory alive. On January 27th, 2020, a routine 20 week ultrasound turned the world upside down for Jack's parents, Brad and Jamie. Expectations that their third baby was perfect and healthy turned into devastation and fear. Their baby was not perfect and healthy. There were several significant findings on the ultrasound indicating that their baby had a life-threatening condition and would need further evaluation.
Four days later, Brad and Jamie spent an entire day at a higher level of care where they met with several specialists, had more in-depth ultrasounds and lab work that would diagnose their baby's condition. Results of the tests would take several days but Brad and Jamie were warned that whatever the result was, it was fatal. Their baby would not survive.
Three days later, Brad and Jamie received a phone call with their baby's diagnosis-triploidy. He had an entire extra set of chromosomes. This was not compatible with life. As most babies with triploidy are miscarried in the first few weeks of pregnancy, doctors had no idea how long Brad and Jamie's baby would survive. There was no way to predict whether he would make it to full term, if he would be born alive, and if so, how long he would live after birth.
On May 11, 2020, at a routine appointment, they heard the words they feared but expected: "there's no heartbeat." Jack was 36 weeks along. Jack was born still on May 12, 2020 at 6:46pm. Jack's parents and two older brothers spent as much time as they could with him and created many memories that they will cherish forever. Since Jack was born, it's been Jamie's mission to ensure that the world knows about her sweet baby boy that never got to come home. His little life matters and even though he is not here, he still has a purpose in this world.
October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness month. Jack's Jog is a 5k run/walk that will take place at Myrick Park with the intent of honoring and remembering all the babies who were taken from their families too soon. It will be a place for parents, families and friends to find support and a safe place to talk about their babies and share their stories. Jamie wants people to feel comfortable to say their baby's name and know they are not alone in their grief. All of the funds raised at this event will be donated to local hospitals for their pregnancy and infant loss bereavement programs to continue to support families navigating the journey of losing their baby.

Our History
Cardiac on Campus was founded in 2016 after the untimely passing of Jon Derynda, a 20-year-old UW-Oshkosh student. His sister, Brittany, and cousin, Jessica Miller, were students at UW-Madison at the time. They wanted to intentionally reach out to younger individuals who do not normally view themselves as at-risk for sudden cardiac arrest. We started small and quickly grew, offering free CPR certification courses, placing AEDs in dorm buildings, and establishing the Red Tutu Trot. Seven years later, we have placed 11 AEDs, performed over 973 ECG screenings, detecting 37 abnormal rhythms, and certified over 2,100 people in CPR.
Racing Towards a Safer Community
For 90% of its victims, sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is fatal. Increasing bystander CPR and AED knowledge while also offering preventive care, like electrocardiogram (EKG) screenings, is our best solution for lowering this grim statistic. Help Cardiac on Campus raise money for our initiatives and awareness about SCA! Thank you for your time and support!
