Biking A-Cross America: The Routes

Each July, missionaries bike almost 4,000 miles in six days, sacrificing time away from their jobs, young children, spouses, and/or parents. Our 2023 National Ride (July 9-16) will begin from eight different starting points across the nation: Green Bay, WI; Columbus, OH (2 teams here!); Ann Arbor, MI; Minneapolis, MN; Fultonville, NY; Natchez, MS; and Dodge City, KS. 5 routes converge in St. Louis, MO and 1 route ends in Arlington, VA after a lap at the National Mall. Our team, comprised of young adults who strengthened their resolve to defend life through athletic and mental challenges, believes in a world that respects the dignity of every single life, and we are chasing that vision.

2023 National Ride is July 9-16.

Follow our journey a-cross America!

Each day of the ride our missionaries share their mileage, hearts and prayers for the unborn and the PRCs that serve their parents.
