History of the Bike Ride to Rippey

The Perry Chamber of Commerce hosts the  Annual BRR - Bike Ride to Rippey - each year on the first Saturday in February as its annual fundraiser. Ever since 1977, this quirky tradition rolls on regardless of the weather!

Known as the “Original WINTER Bike Ride”, BRR riders have experienced frigid temperatures and wind chills while plowing through a foot of snow and have also enjoyed spring like temperatures of 60 degrees! Attendance has grown every year with riders and guests attending from all over Iowa and the country!

BRR is a frozen-filled day of biking, prizes and entertainment that begins and ends in beautiful downtown Perry, IA.  
Day-of Registration, plus other morning activities take place inside the historic Hotel Pattee.

Thank you to the 2021 BRR Sponsors!

The BRR Ride Goes on Regardless of Weather!
