The Wrigley Field Road Tour is the perfect opportunity to enjoy a beautiful century ride and experience the magic of Wrigley Field, all while making a world of difference. Higher Gear's Wilmette location will be one of the many rest stops along the 100-mile route. If you can't join us for the ride and post-ride party, stop by Higher Gear to cheer on the riders.
