Chicago Grit 2024

Competitive Cycling Returns to Lombard!

The DuPage Sports Commission is bringing competitive cycling back with the Lombard Cycling Classic. As part of Chicago Grit, the Lombard Cycling Classic is a one-day, all-day, event expected to welcome upwards of 1,000 amateur and professional cyclists, and their guests, from around the world to Lombard on July 22, 2025.


THE COURSE

Located in the downtown area, the course offers an exciting criterium featuring both a narrow and technical back side along Michael McGuire Drive, a wide-open sprint finish stretch on St. Charles Road, and a start/finish line near the local favorite Babcock's Grove House.​​​​

FAMILY FUN RIDE - 6:00 PM

Bring the kids out to see the fastest bicyclists in the country — and start a new tradition by joining the Kids & Family Community Ride.

Meet at the Kids & Family tent by 5:15 PM to check in before the 6:00 PM start. All riders must bring their own bicycle, and helmets are required to participate.

New this year! Thanks to Variety of Illinois, free helmets will be gifted to onsite participants — one per child, while supplies last.

To ensure participation, all riders should still bring their own helmet, as supplies may be limited.
