Mercer Bike Fest & Loon Ride

ICORE is excited to announce the inaugural MERCER BIKE FEST to be held on Saturday, August 2nd, 2025 in Mercer WI, Loon Capital of the World. This event is the start of fund raising efforts for phase one of the above Mercer Bike Trail Expansion Project.

Join us in our efforts by riding the Loon Ride; a 7, 24, or 50 mile route starting and ending at Carow Park on the shores of beautiful Grand Portage Lake. Participants will start their ride between 8 and 9am. After you return to Carow Park, stay for music, food, beverages, raffles and cool off with a swim in the lake!

Check out Mercer Bike Expansion Project to learn more about the Mercer Bike Trails Expansion Project and how you can play a part in completing the loop. The Mercer Bike Fest on Saturday August 2, 2025 kicks off the week of Loon Days with the 45th annual Loon Day Art and Craft fair held in Mercer on Wednesday, August 6 with over 250 vendors. We look forward to seeing you on the ride!
