Event Description: This ride visits four lakes in SE Wisconsin. Approximately 1/3 of the route goes through lakeside neighborhoods and 2/3 of the route is on country roads connecting the lakes. Most of the country roads are low traffic, but there are a few stretches with moderate traffic. The route is a mix of hills and flat sections. There are a few short steep grades. The 45 mile route visits all four lakes, while the 29 mile option cuts out Bohner Lake. The ride begins at Silver Lake Park, visits Silver Lake, Twin Lakes, Powers Lake, and Bohner Lake before returning to Twin Lakes for lunch at Wild Child’s Restaurant and ice cream at Tom’s Straw Hat. We then we ride the final seven miles back to the cars at Silver Lake.

Event Start Location: Silver Lake County Park. 27000 85th St, Salem, WI 53168. We will meet at the disc golf parking lot in Silver Lake Park. See “Directions to Parking Lot” map at the bottom of this page for directions to the parking.

RWGPS Files: Using the RWGPS graphic shown below:
- If there is more than one route associated with the event (for example, two distances), click the box at the bottom of the graphic for the route you desire to view. If there is only one route, these boxes will not be present.
- To download cuesheets and all file formats (FIT, TCX, and GPX), click the “View Full” link at the bottom of the graphic for multi-route events or the “View Full Version” link at the top of the graphic for single route events. You will then be taken to the route’s RWGPS page. Once on the RWGPS page, click “More” in the upper left corner. A drop-down menu appears allowing you to “Export as File” (which opens a box for you to select FIT, TCX, or GPX). The drop-down menu also has options to “Print Map and Cue PDF” or just “Print Cuesheet.”
- The “Download” link at the bottom of the graphic (for multi-route events) or the “Send to Device” link at the top of the graphic (for single route events) will allow you to download a route file, but this method usually defaults to TCX format if you select Garmin Edge. If you desire FIT or GPX formats, click the “View Full” link.

IMPORTANT - DO NOT DOWNLOAD FILES UNTIL A FEW DAYS BEFORE THE RIDE AS THE ROUTE MAY BE UPDATED PRIOR TO THEN !!!
