The Bloomington Bicycle Club in Bloomington, IN is the sponsor of RAIN (Ride Across INdiana), an annual 160-mile ride across the state of Indiana. The ride takes place on the Historic National Route 40, a scenic road with light traffic and gentle rolling hills, and participants must be able to maintain an average speed of 12 to 14 mph for over 11 hours. Riders are required to wear helmets and obey all Indiana traffic laws, and must finish the ride by 9:00 pm to be considered an official finisher.
Riders have the option to register for RAIN through mail-in forms or online through Active.com, and fees range from $35 to $50 per rider depending on the registration date. The ride provides rider packets, rest stops with food and drinks, a full lunch stop, and a finish line souvenir. Accommodations are available at the Drury Inn in Terre Haute, and transportation options are provided for those needing return transportation from Richmond back to Terre Haute. Training tips and past ride reports are also available on the website.
