The Busse Woods Night Ride is back for the 10th time in 2025!
On every other night of the year, the Forest Preserves of Cook County close at dusk. But this unique event is just getting started at sunset – and it goes well into the night! Here's your chance to ride the Busse Woods Trail and experience the beauty of Busse Woods in the dark!
Ride your bike under the moonlight and stay for the party!
All participants will enjoy live music, fire pits, snacks, s’mores, food for purchase, and more!
All paid attendees will receive two drink tickets. Those 21+ with valid ID’s can use those two tickets for beer from Pollyanna Brewing & Distilling or wine from Wine With Me. Also cold brew coffee samples will be provided by Maple Leaf Coffee Roasters.
ID’s will be checked at the Check-In table. Attendees over 21 who plan to drink beer or wine must bring and show a state issued ID. No exceptions!!
This event is organized by the Friends of Cycling in Elk Grove and The Forest Preserves of Cook County. All proceeds from this event will be used to promote the many benefits of cycling to residents of Elk Grove Village and the NW suburbs.
