Beginning on June 2, 2019, Don will once again undertake the challenge to bicycle unsupported from Astoria, Oregon to Yorktown, Virginia in the Trans Am Bike Race. The Trans Am Bike Race is a self-supported, ultra-distance bicycling race along the Trans America Trail – a 4,300 mile route that runs from the Pacific coast to the Atlantic coast crossing the Cascades, Rockies, and Appalachian mountain ranges; and is one of most grueling races in the world with less than 50% of registered riders able to complete it every year. In his first two attempts, Don raised nearly $15,000 in support of JCS.  Don’s progress can be followed on his blog and real time GPS. His goal is to go the distance this year.

Come join us and tour the flat farmlands of the Mississippi valley heading south out of Columbia, Illinois with views of the bluffs as we support our adopted Heroes.

The JCS Bike for Heroes ride offers four different routes in distances of 10 miles, 25 miles, 50 miles, or 80 miles.  There will be several rest stops with snacks, drinks, and facilities available for your convenience. On the 25 and 50 mile routes, you will travel the flat farmlands and enjoy views of the Missouri and Illinois river bluffs.

The 80-mile route extends to Prairie Du Rocher, Illinois where you will ride alongside bluffs and pass Fort De Chartres. Built in 1753, this site marks the location of the last of four successive French forts built during the colonization of the Illinois Country.
