The Northwestern Medicine Lake Bluff Criterium returns again with big crowds and tons of fun!

Northwestern Medicine is proud to serve as the principal sponsor and title healthcare sponsor for the Lake Bluff Criterium. The local organizing committee is thrilled to bring this premiere event to the community for another year and invite the entire town to join us for family fun and world-class cycling.

The Northwestern Medicine Lake Forest Hospital team will provide first aid to cyclists as needed. Bicycling is a fun sport that suits all ages and we hope this event inspires community residents to be active and live a healthy lifestyle.

We’re currently working on finalizing the schedule for 2022. The event schedule and race course for can be found below.
