I grew up in an area that the "TransAmerica Bicycle Trail" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TransAmerica_Bicycle_Trail https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TransAmerica_Bicycle_Trail) goes through. The "Bikecentennial '76" event (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bikecentennial https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bikecentennial) used that route.
The only reason I know this is a tiny sign commemorating the "Bikecentennial '76" next to a tiny section of dedicated asphalted bike trail out in the middle of nowhere along a state highway route.
Every once in a while growing up I would see folks following the TransAmerica Bicycle Trail. It looked like both a lot of fun and a lot of work.
