Saint Paul Classic Bike Tour 2025

The 31st annual Classic offers scenic routes, superb live music and tasty treats.

• The Classic starts and ends at Como Lakeside Pavilion. We offer two check-in times (7:30am-8:30am and 8:30am-9:30am). All riders must be on route by 9:30 a.m. Enjoy live music inside the pavilion, plus there will be a bounty of refreshments and live music at every rest stop. Riders must finish and pick up their T-shirts by 1:30 p.m.
• We are limiting attendance to 2,500.
• Riders will enjoy riding on Saint Paul’s newest state of the art paved trails, bicycle lanes and protected bikeways. No roads will be closed to automobile traffic. Bicyclists must follow the rules of the road.

• The Grand Round route is a 29 or 32 miles (the 32 mile route includes a lap around Lake Phalen) and features three rest stops including the stylish Lilydale Pavilion overlooking Pickerel Lake.
• The Short Route will be a 12.8 mile “Lollipop Loop” east to Lake Phalen along Wheelock Parkway. Enjoy a loop around lovely Lake Phalen for a 15.8-mile tour.

The Classic is a great experience for riders of all stripes. “It’s the vest ride in the state!” says Michael Doyle, ride director of the Tour of Saints. The tour winds through historic neighborhoods, beautiful parks and parkways, and along 14 miles of the majestic Mississippi River. Join us for this non-competitive, go-at-your-own-pace tour.
