Always a delight to see you both! Until next year! #GetOutside

We made it across the state of Missouri & have shown that the @KatyTrail is completely doable by #wheelchair! Thankful for a team that makes these rides possible & looking forward to our next adventure. #IansRide2024 #RailTrail iansride.com/ians-ride/2024…

That’s a wrap; another successful Ian’s Ride in the books! Spending 7 days on the trail with close friends sure does wonders for the soul. #GetOutside #ThisIsMyBike #IansRide2024 #RailTrail #AccessibleTrails #AccessibleNature #TrailsForAll #AccessForAll #KatyTrailMO

The final day is upon us. Today we have just under 40 miles on the #RockIslandSpurTrail. Our sponsor of the day is #AdaptiveSwitchLaboratories with unique solutions for unusual needs allowing those with severe disabilities to access the world independently. Thanks ASL!#GetOutside

It’s our 2nd to last day in Missouri! Getting a slightly later start due to some rain… we look forward to a dust-free day. Today’s sponsor of the day is @Diestco They make my canopies & have been supporting & outfitting us since 2018. #GetOutside #IansRide2024 #RailTrail

Day 5 was the hottest so far, but we powered through. Beautiful scenery today… lots of tunnels and pockets of cicadas. Tomorrow we finish up the Katy, and spend a day and a half on the Rock Island Trail! #GetOutside #ThisIsMyBike #IansRide2024 #RailTrail #AccessibleTrails

Day 4 blog is up! Check out the accessibility work we put in near the capitol prior to a VERY hot ride! @railstotrails #GetOutside #IansRide2024 #ThisIsMyBike #AccessibleTrails #TrailsForAll #AccessforAll #KatyTrailMo iansride.com/ians-ride/2024…

Day 5 of #IansRide2024 begins! Our sponsor of the day is @SafePathProduct They create ramps and other access solutions for #accessibility, all from recycled tires and other waste products. They’re making a difference in more ways than one! Thanks SafePath! #ReduceReuseRecycle

Big thanks to @ABC17News for highlighting our ride and this beautiful trail!!! #GetOutside #IansRide2024 #RailTrail abc17news.com/news/jefferson…

Day 3 begins with a bang! Thanks to all who came to the North Jefferson City trailhead to celebrate! Today’s sponsor of the day is @railstotrails Their work to turn defunct rail beds into trails that all can enjoy allows me to explore our nation in a unique way! #RailTrail

Day three of the Katy Trail was lovely (with a few animal mishaps along the way)! Read on to find out about how it went! After a little extra shut-eye, we are up and ready to tackle the day starting with Jefferson City!  #GetOutside #IansRide2024 iansride.com/ians-ride/2024…

Katy Trail day 3 has begun! Today we highlight the @HereandNowPrjct Their work strengthening connections & helping folks with SCI find resources is immeasurable. Today is their annual 5K For Today, and we are excited to get some 5Ks done on the @KatyTrail #DoLife #IansRide2024

Day two is in the books on the @KatyTrail It was another scorcher but we kept our cool, picked up a friend for the day’s ride, and saw some beautiful parts of the Midwest! #GetOutside #IansRide2024 #ThisIsMyBike #AccessibleTrails #RailTrail
