  • AboutThis web site and blog is for those dedicated to living and promoting the bicycling lifestyle in The Buckeye State. The name of this site was inspired by the Smoke Free Ohio/Smoke Less Ohio campaigns of the election of 2007. I am not anti-car; I own a car and rely on it like most people. I know that bicycling is not necessarily for everyone, and I certainly don’t believe that anyone should be forced to ride a bike. I only believe that if we make it easier for those who choose to use the bicycle as a normal, practical means of transportation, then all of us, drivers and non-drivers alike, will benefit. You can help spread the word by requesting your FREE CarFreeOhio/CarLessOhio stickers! I started this site with the intention of being a comprehensive resource for any and all things related to cycling in Ohio, but I quickly realized that would be a daunting and never-ending task. So, I now post news about events, rides, and other organizations that I find relevant or interesting, and write stories about my own rides and bike-related stuff that i like. If anybody else finds it interesting, then great; if not, so be it. I…

Rode another variation of the #CVNP #AdventureLoop today, following the Bike & Hike Trail down to Rt 303, then hopping on 303 to #Peninsula. You can bypass the last busy downhill into town by turning right into the Pine Lane Trailhead then continuing straight onto the abandoned road that is the #BuckeyeTrail. Be aware there are some obstacles on the way. Spent last Saturday exploring #KelleysIsland by #bicycle including the #GlacialGrooves. Sharing the #FallsGravel #Route8Gravel again while #BikeCommuting home today. Snack break at one of my favorite spots to stop on the @summitmetroparks Bike & Hike Trail. A few shots from an impromptu #S24O #BikeOvernight this past weekend. 50ish miles each way on the #TowpathTrail. Obligatory #IceCream stop @cherrystrcreamery in Canal Filton, dinner @theshiftbeer and breakfast @chloes.diner in Massillon. Thx to #QuietRyan for a couple of the pics. Got a couple laps at #EastRim tonight. Seems like more often than not I end up there on counter-clockwise days, so it was nice to get in a clockwise day for a change. Even did a lap on Phase 1 - who even does that anymore? #MountainBiking #SalsaTimberjack It had been a while since I’d been on my #SurlyBigDummy so today I decided to ride it up to our local @rei to drop off a return. The forecast called for rain all day, but it looked like I just missed it this morning, and the afternoon ended up quite beautiful for #BikeCommuting today! Rest days are good, and sometimes a rest week is even better. First time in saddle since riding 150 miles last weekend for the #BikeMS #PedalToThePoint felt pretty good. Casual spin home after meeting an old friend for lunch at @birdtownbrewing . Had a few sprinkles but dodged the worst downpour, which seemed to be in the airport area.
