See you there!
Join us on September 27 (Saturday) for a relaxed bike ride around Columbus. Starting from the Oval, it only takes 2 hours to see that you can save yourself hundreds of dollars a year in college by cycling instead of driving. Columbus is a very bicycle-friendly city! Plus, this ride will give you a chance to meet others in the Columbus cycling community, and practice your road riding skills safely in a group.
Follow-Up This was the best tour yet! We had 10 people, plenty for a day of fun. The ride was closer to three hours and covered several local landmarks such as the Topiary Garden, Goodale Park, Arena District, Columbus Library, Statehouse, B1 Bicycles, Third Hand Bike Co-op, and ended with Mexican food at Cazuelas on North Campus. Smashing, just smashing, folks.
