Come join us and tour the flat farmlands of the Mississippi valley heading south out of Columbia, Illinois, with views of the bluffs as we support our adopted Heroes.
Registration opens at 6:00 A.M. with a group start at 7:00 A.M.
The JCS Bike for Heroes ride offers five different routes:
• 10 miles
• 25 miles
• 50 miles
• 80 miles
• 100 miles
There will be several rest stops with snacks, drinks, and facilities available for your convenience.
On the 25 and 50 mile routes, you will travel the flat farmlands and enjoy views of the Missouri and Illinois river bluffs.
The 80 and 100 mile routes extend through Prairie Du Rocher, Illinois where you will ride alongside bluffs and pass Fort De Chartres. Built in 1753, this site marks the location of the last of four successive French forts built during the colonization of the Illinois Country.

WALK for PKD
Team Sirius Walks for PKD
We’re lacing up again this fall for the 2025 Walk for PKD — raising awareness and funds to support research for polycystic kidney disease. This cause hits close to home for Team Sirius, as we walk in honor of our teammate Glen, who lives with PKD. Our goal this year is to raise $2,500 to help move us closer to a cure. Join us, donate, or cheer us on — because together, we can help end PKD.
