Thank you for your interest
in the Kickapoo BRAVE (Bluffs, Rivers And Valleys Event) Ride, starting in
Gays Mills, Wisconsin on September 19. Gays Mills is located along the
Kickapoo River in Southwest Wisconsin, in the heart of the scenic Kickapoo
Valley. The ride will start at 9 am from Riverside Park in Downtown Gays
Mills, located on Highway 171. Registration sign-in will begin at 7 am,
where registrants will be given t-shirts, dinner tickets, and gift bag. A
brief welcome/ orientation meeting will take place at 8:45. There will be a

Routes
You will have a choice of two
routes beginning and ending in Gays Mills. The shorter 20-mile ride will
stay in the river valley and take you to the Driftless Area Art Festival in
Soldiers Grove, while the longer 100 kilometer ride will take you over the
ridge to Ferryville and the Mississippi River. This year all of the routes
are paved, but beware of loose gravel on seal-coated roads.
