The six 2023 Cherokee Nation Remember the Removal Bike Ride participants left for Cherokee, North Carolina, Wednesday, May 31 following a send-off ceremony at the Cherokee Nation W.W. Keeler Tribal Complex. Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr., Deputy Chief Bryan Warner, and other Cherokee Nation leaders joined members of the Council of the Cherokee Nation and family, friends, and co-workers of the six cyclists to share well-wishes ahead of their weeks-long journey. The cyclists will join five participants from the Eastern Band of the Cherokee Indians in North Carolina later this week to train before their ride officially begins June 5.
