## Resource

Botetourt County, Virginia, just honored its cycling legacy with a new historical marker celebrating its role on the iconic TransAmerica Bicycle Trail—born from the 1976 Bikecentennial ride that saw 4,000 cyclists pedal coast to coast. The dedication ceremony featured original riders, Adventure Cycling Association reps, and a locally crafted resting bench funded by the PEDAL project, symbolizing the county’s enduring welcome to cyclists. This trail, now nearly 50 years old, continues to inspire adventurers of all kinds, proving how one historic ride can leave a lasting, pedal-powered legacy.
