Cross-Country Route 40 Bike Trip - Day 24: Chain of Rocks Bridge to Effingham, Illinois
| Distance: |
99.9 miles |
| Description: |
Day 24 will take you from the Mississippi River to the plains of Illinois. Once you leave the Mississippi flood plain, your elevation will hover between 450 and 575 feet above sea level. This is one of the easiest days on the coast-to-coast journey. There are adequate old alignments and frontage roads so you will completely avoid riding on I-70. |
