Every June St. Nick's Cycling Club hosts the Soil Transam, where several brave cyclists set out from Cave Inn Rock IL and ride across the state via the Historic 1976 TransAmerica Trail. It's 134 miles and about 8000 feet of climbing. This year's ride was made extra tough due to very high heat index and headwind. Be on the lookout next year for the annoucement and follow St. Nick's Cycling if you want to make the epic ride next year.
