Special Event Rides

Tandem Weekend: The 15th No Frills Tandem Weekend will be held the weekend of May 28-30, 2010. All rides leave from Seville. Friday early arrival pre-dinner spin; Saturday ride through the beautiful Overton Valley; Sunday historic Canal Fulton.

The ABC Ride: Our 35th edition of our Absolutely Beautiful Country Ride will be held Sunday, July 11, 2010. Last year we had about 85 century riders, 139 metric century riders, and 84 quarter century riders and families. The weather was ideal this year, with a sunny day with temperatures in the mid-70s.

Roscoe Ramble: Our 36th Roscoe Ramble will be held Saturday & Sunday, August 14–15, 2010. Last year we had 98 riders who rambled to Roscoe Village in Coshocton, Ohio. The new, flatter, Sunday route that included the paved Holmes County Bicycle Trail was a success. Saturday was a breezy mild day, while Sunday was a breezy but hot (92º) day.

Safety and Advocacy

Share the Road License Plates

After years of effort by the Ohio Bicycle Federation, H.B. 406 was signed into law, authorizing the issuance of a special "Share the Road" license plate. Sales from this special plate will fund bicycle safety education in Ohio and the publication of Ohio Bicycling Street Smarts

     You can purchase your plates even if you are not renewing your registration. To order on-line, click here.
