Join Ride Illinois from June 7-12, 2026 for the 23rd annual Grand Illinois Bike Tour (GIBT) – the nonprofit organization’s largest annual fundraiser and one heck of a good time! Our 2026 route will explore Metro East area in SW Illinois – including scenic views along the mighty Mississippi River.
2026 GIBT will begin and end in Litchfield with overnights in pre-reserved hotels in O’Fallon (June 7), Edwardsville (June 8-9), and Alton (June 10-11).
We’ll roll out from Litchfield, make our way to O’Fallon (June 7), spend two nights in Edwardsville (June 8-9), then two nights in Alton (June 10-11) before riding back to Litchfield.
