Bacoon Ride

Like bicycles? Like bacon? Like scenic trails and small-town charm? The Bacoon Ride brings it all together for Iowa’s most delicious day on two wheels. This wildly popular annual event cruises through several central Iowa towns along the beautiful Raccoon River Valley Trail (RRVT). At every stop, riders are greeted with mouthwatering bacon-themed food and drinks, turning a scenic spin into a sizzling celebration of flavor.

Your registration includes a full day of bacon stops and samples, a commemorative PassPORK punch card to track your tasty progress, and a fun Bacoon-themed keepsake to remember the ride. Whether you’re here for the miles, the memories, or the crispy goodness, the Bacoon Ride delivers an unforgettable experience that draws cyclists from across the country year after year. 🥓🚴

By registering for this ride, you have played an important role supporting in bicycle advocacy. We look forward to sharing with you how these events grow bicycling but also play a role in funding our advocacy work at the legislature, DOT, and putting more kids on bikes with our Safe Routes to School Program. When you bicycle on Iowa’s trails or roadways, you want an enjoyable ride taking you safely to your destination. We work to make Iowa bicycling safe, accessible, and enjoyable for all. Donate at .
