Hello Joanne,
We’re excited to bring the Harmon 100 back this year, and we’d love to have you join us again.
First, thank you for being part of last year’s ride. Because of you, the event came together in a way that reminded all of us what makes this ride special: great people, a strong community, and a shared love of the road.
We listened closely to feedback from last year and made a few meaningful updates to improve the experience. You’ll see adjustments to routes for safety and improvements to rest stop locations and menus so the day flows even better from start to finish.
HARMON 100
August 30, 2026
Wauconda High School
Wauconda, Illinois
Registration is now open.
The Harmon 100 is built for riders who enjoy a challenge, good company, and a well-supported day on the bike. You’ll ride through the rolling hills of Lake County, starting and finishing in Wauconda, with routes designed to give you options for every level.
Whether you’re coming back solo or bringing friends along this year, you can expect a full day of riding, community, and support on every mile.
Ride Details
• Route options: 25, 50, 75, and 102 miles
• Clearly marked courses for simple navigation
• GPS downloads + cue sheets available
• Ride with GPS voice navigation supported
• On-site bike shop support at registration and McHenry Rest Stop
• Rest stops with food and drinks (open until 3:00 PM)

Final routes will be confirmed two weeks before the event to ensure safety. This is a rain-or-shine ride, so plan accordingly.
No refunds, but we’re confident the experience will be worth it regardless of the weather.
If you rode with us last year, this is a great chance to come back, ride stronger, and enjoy the community again. If you’re bringing others along, even better. The more riders on the road, the better the day becomes.
We’d love to see you back out there on August 30th.
