Save the Dates!

We will be hosting two trail clean ups next year:

  • Earth Day: Saturday, April 26, 2025 at 111th Street
  • Pre celebration ride: Saturday, August 23, 2025 at 129th and Eggleston

Our Earth Day cleanup will focus on the northern part of the trail. Our second cleanup will become a yearly tradition of ours where we wash down the mural on the trail’s bridge. More details to come!

2024 Major Taylor Trail Keepers Celebration Ride:

Thank you to everyone who was able to join us!

Saturday 9/7/24 Major Taylor Trail Keepers Celebration Ride

Thank you to everyone who came out September 7 and all of our friends and supporters—what an amazing day!

It was incredible to see everyone come out to ride and celebrate the legacy of Major Taylor. We shared stories, had laughs, created wonderful memories on the trail, and enjoyed healthy and delicious barbecue by Wild 100’s Jerkman!

Of course, none of this would have been possible without the support of our volunteers and donors, and partnerships with/from Commonwealth Edison, Evanston Bike Club, Forest Preserves of Cook County, Major Taylor Cycling Club Chicago, SRAM, and REI. 

We cannot wait to see everyone again next year! Save the date for next years ride: September 6, 2025
