Get ready to pedal through history with the Major Taylor Trail Keepers Celebration Ride! This exhilarating event invites you to join us on Saturday, September 6, 2025, to celebrate the 125th anniversary of Marshall "Major" Taylor's groundbreaking world championship victory—a milestone for both cycling and African American sports heroes. Meet us at Dan Ryan Woods Forest Preserve where the journey begins at 8:00 a.m. with registration, followed by a heartfelt tribute to the legend himself. Set off at 9:00 a.m. on the newly beautified Major Taylor Trail and ride not just for glory, but to support the trail's maintenance and honor an icon. This ride isn't just a competition; it's a rolling testament to resilience and legacy, all in the heart of Chicago and its southern suburbs. Join forces with the Major Taylor Trail Keepers, Friends of the Major Taylor Trail, and the Major Taylor Cycling Club of Chicago for this unforgettable experience!
