Cyclists humble as they complete historic Homeland Removal Ride
Chickasaw Cycling Club members between 42 and 76 years old completed an 11-day Homeland Removal Ride, taking the same route as their ancestors who traveled to their new home in present-day Oklahoma. The cyclists rode from Mississippi, through Arkansas and to Oklahoma to complete their ride in Tishomingo, Oklahoma.
With more than three years of planning, members of the Chickasaw Cycling Club have accomplished their historic “Homeland Removal Ride” from Pontotoc, Mississippi, to the Chickasaw Nation Historic Capitol Building in Tishomingo, Oklahoma.
The cyclists followed the historic Removal route Chickasaws took from the Homeland to their future home in present-day Oklahoma.
