History talk: Retracing the 1897 Expedition of the Buffalo Soldiers – Bicycle Corps (Philly Bike Expo)

Hi,
I am not sure if this is the right place to post this. It's certainly part of the mountain bike history.

Enjoy!
Best

The slides are of better quality on this video. But it is missing the Philly Bike Expo vibe

Very interesting. Thank you for posting. Awful that the Buffalo Soldiers were given dishonourable discharges that were not overturned until after their deaths.

(Note: talk starts at around 7m 30s and just after 49m there's a short video that was shown at the talk that summarises the ride and its purpose.)

I'm glad you liked it. This page of history is quite fascinating.
Also, some tips to take for the bikepackers
