Lincoln Highway Bike Ride
Lincoln Highway Bike Ride
Ride your bike where Abe Lincoln rode his horse! Meet at the Menard County Courthouse in Petersburg for a 29-mile ride on the Lincoln Highway and rural roads with stops at four historic sites. After a short rest stop at the Trading Post in Oakford we’ll head back to Petersburg for refreshments at Hand of Fate Brewing Co. This is a joint venture with the Springfield Bicycle Club. Here's a cool Trails & Greenways blog about the route: https://menardcountytrailsandgreenways.org/cat.../bicycling/. The average speed will be around 12-14 mph, but the group will determine the pace. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/36193811
