Polar Bear Ride - 2019

  • Rogers Pavilion at Highland Park 902 West Defenbaugh Street Kokomo, IN, 46902 United States (map)
Our 2019 Polar Bear Ride, held on January 1, 2019 was INCREDIBLE this year! We had amazing weather (40+ degree temperatures) and a total of ~60 riders! We couldn’t have asked for a better day or a better turn out! Next year, we will be celebrating our 50th Anniversary, so plan to come out and enjoy the big event with us, warm, cold, snow or sunshine! It will truly be a great day to ride!

Some people would call you crazy if you told them you were going to go on a 25 mile bike ride on January 1st. Others would call you a polar bear! This New Year’s Day bicycle ride is the highlight of mid-winter since 1970. Indoor shelter with roaring fireplace! This is a Rain / Shine / Snow / Freeze event!  If you don't feel like riding, come enjoy the fire and start the year off right!
