Enjoy the ride of your life with the Jackson Chance Foundation (JCF) on Saturday, August 16th & Sunday, August 17th! The Owl Ride for Jackson is a two-day 111-mile roundtrip bike ride from Chicago to Valparaiso, IN. Taking off from Chicago’s lakefront, the route serves up breathtaking views and scenic bike trails to Valparaiso. Day 1, bikers ride 55.5 miles, enjoy a complimentary dinner and an evening in Valpo, and then on day 2, ride another 55.5 miles back to Chicago. With a mix of rolling terrain and a few punchy climbs it offers something for cyclists of all abilities. A 1-day option is available. All riders are invited to enjoy a post ride celebration on Sunday including dinner, treats, and massages!

Proceeds from Owl Ride for Jackson benefit JCF’s NICU Transportation Program which partners with Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital, Northwestern Prentice Women’s Hospital and Rush University Children’s Hospital to provide complimentary parking passes for families with critically ill babies in the NICU. Challenge yourself or enjoy the ride while impacting so many families when they need it most.
