A team of cyclists traveling across the country will arrive in Sedalia Thursday.

They're part of the Journey of Hope, a 4000 mile trek raising funds and awareness for people with disabilities.

The national team is cycling on average 75 miles a day.

The nine week journey started on the west coast and is expected to end in Washington D.C on August 13th.

Along the way, the team has spent every afternoon with people who have disabilities.

The program is a philanthropy of the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity. Members of that fraternity from across the country make up the cycling team.
