History

This bike ride across America will also focus on history and follow a trail of explorers, missionaries, converts. It is a discovery of the Catholic faith in America and how faith in communities contributed to the moral fiber of a nation. It is a pedaling pilgrimage looking for missing priests and nuns in the heartland.
