OKLAHOMA CHEROKEES RETRACE TRAIL OF TEARS, STOP IN HOPKINSVILLE

           A GROUP OF ABOUT A DOZEN CYCLISTS…BICYCLISTS, THAT IS…MADE THEIR WAY INTO HOPKINSVILLE AS PART OF A SEMI-CROSS COUNTRY TREK RETRACING THE TRAIL OF TEARS FROM GEORGIA TO OKLAHOMA.

            GROUP SPOKESMAN 38 YEAR-OLD TODD ENLOW SAYS EVERYONE CYCLING IS OF NATIVE AMERICAN DESCENT AND ALMOST ALL OF THEM ARE IN THEIR LATE TEENS OR EARLY TWENTIES, SO LEADERS ARE STOPPING TO TEACH AT EVERY POSSIBLE TURN.

            THE CYCLISTS STARTED SATURDAY IN GEORGIA AND ENLOW SAYS THEY ARE COVERING ABOUT 55 TO 60 MILES PER DAY WITH HOPES OF BEING IN OKLAHOMA BY JULY 15^TH. 

            THE GROUP STAYED AT THE TRAIL OF TEARS PARK IN HOPKINSVILLE LAST (THURSDAY) NIGHT AND WILL BE HEADING WEST TODAY (FRIDAY).
