Great American Rail Trail

September 19 to October 4, 2022

Every other year since 2016, Ian’s Ride has done a lengthy trek to demonstrate the need for accessible infrastructure in the outdoors. In 2016 we rode from Canada to Portland. 2018 brought us from Idaho to the Pacific and 2020 was 10 days down the Redwood Coast in Northern California. After our 2020 ride we decided it’s time to start highlighting safer trails rather than Highway bike routes. So, this year we will be doing the first 500 miles of the Great American Rail Trail (GART)! We will start in Washington DC and finish in Ohio. It will take us about 14 days, we will do daily blogs describing our progress and we will have other wheelchair users join us whenever possible. This will be our biggest event since 2018 and is bound to make a big splash!
