9/23 9AM Botzum To Valley City 53 Miles

The 53 mile route includes several climbs and a refreshment stop at Knotts Family Diner (and Ice Cream).  The route can be viewed at https://ridewithgps.com/routes/25431591

 

Starts 9 AM from the Botzum  Parking Lot on Riverview Rd.  The group typically splits into a subgroup at 15-16 mph and a second at 18+mph.  This is a good practice route for MOB Fall N Leaf ride.

 “Helmets are required on all ABC rides.  Please no use of ear buds, or cell phones while riding.  Recommend use of rear view mirrors.  By law (and for your safety) a headlight, rear reflector and tail light is required 30 minutes prior to sunset, and recommended at all times for additional safety.  Please obey all traffic laws.  Safety is everyone’s responsibility.  Rides are for members and first time guests.  See Akronbike.org for more information or to become a member.   Come Ride With Us and Enjoy The Ride.“

We tested the route several weeks ago and removed the majority of Hamilton Rd due to high traffic on the 55 mph highway and lack of berm.  The ice cream shop is not open until the afternoon.
