This is the seventh segment of a cross-country e-bike ride inspired by an historic military convoy that followed the Lincoln Highway in 1919. Ike Eisenhower was a reporting officer of the convoy. His experience would ultimately lead to the creation of the US Interstate Highway System.

This is a challenging and long segment (500 miles) and not a route for unprepared cyclists, especially between Craig and Dinosaur. We will post a segment rating summary once we have e-biked this segment of the route. The maximum grade is 9.4%.


To avoid Interstate 80, we need to cycle south of the Lincoln Highway on Route 40.
