​The evolution of a bike ride. 

The Two Rivers Century began in 2010 when the Kankakee River Bike Club realized our local roads were as good - if not better - than those of the organized rides to which we often traveled.  We have light traffic, relatively flat, and very scenic paved roads along the Kankakee and Iroquois Rivers. Our inaugural event was a metric century. The ride grew in numbers and distance over the past 13 years as we have worked to incorporate all of our favorite routes.

The Two Rivers Century is always on the Sunday of the first full weekend in August starting in Kankakee, IL and weaving along the Kankakee River and the mouth of the Iroquois River.

We also offer the Shaw Crank Convention on the Sunday after Labor Day. It is at Camp Shaw-waw-nas-see, a "natural playground", in Manteno, IL.  Ride trails, paths and roads and then relax and recreate.
