ABOUT

Marylou Jackson, Velma Jackson, Ethyl Miller, Leolya Nelson, and Constance White set a call in 1928 - cycle 250-mi from Harlem, NY to Washington, DC in less than 65 hours.

Ninety-three years later, we’re riding to answer it.

The 1928 Legacy Tour is a MAJOR KNOX Adventure designed for radical joy in the outdoors while amplifying Black women’s legacy of athleticism and bicycle touring and celebrating sisterhood on bikes.

Join the 1928 Legacy Tour by taking on your own endurance challenge!

Our goals:

  • Amplify a buried legacy.
  • Celebrate sisterhood and athleticism.
  • Promote exploration of the outdoors through bicycle touring.
  • Heal from historical and present-day trauma experienced in outdoor and fitness spaces.

Engage with the 1928 Legacy Tour @majorknoxadventures on Instagram. We will be sharing stories, going live with updates, and bringing virtual participants along for the ride!

Share your experience with us on social media using the hashtags #1928LegacyTour #AMKLA #MajorKnoxAdventure #Run4AllWomen
