Ashtabula Covered Bridge Loop 9/25/16
 

I will be hosting my second Ashtabula Covered Bridge ride on September 25TH 2016 and hoping some of you join us for this epic ride! You will visit 8 covered bridges and ride the Western Reserve Greenway Trail in beautiful Ashtabula county Ohio! I promise you this will be an unforgettable ride for anyone that comes!

Here is the Ashtabula Crank Bicycle Club Facebook event page...........

This is a mostly paved 46.6 mile ride and will take 6-8 hours with plenty of stops and places to get refreshments. I suggest 2 water bottles, snacks, spare tube, and misc tools to bring along with you. This ride can be done on a road bike, but there are a few short jaunts of gravel road to some of the bridges.........

Here is a link to last year's ride if you wanna see some pictures..........

I started posting and sharing this event on Fecebook and it looks like it's gonna be a huge turnout!

Barring anything out of the ordinary we will be there. See ya at the diner.

I must be really tired, thought this was in Wisconsin.

It would be worth the road trip!

I'm sure it would be... but since my Nissan Leaf has a range of 84 miles, I have some limitations for where I can go ride my bike without asking someone else to drive.

Last bump since the ride is on Sunday. Come join us if you are in the area or are bored this weekend it will be worth the trip.

Here is a really nice article about the ride I hosted over the weekend. It was an awesome turnout and everyone had a great time.....

I was looking at the pictures from last year's ride. Those are some beautiful covered bridges!!

Looks like you had a good turnout for this year's ride, judging by the pics in the linked article. Looks like a good time was had by all.


:)

Thanks for posting. Looks like our kind of ride. Maybe next year if we know about it in time.

Thanks all. It was an awesome turnout and everyone loved the ride. They want a Spring and Fall ride next year.

I know this is an old post but are you planning on doing this ride in 2017?

Yes. I will host another one in September.

Thank you!!!!

Does it need a ticket? how much is it?

There is no ticket or cost for the ride. Just be there! Here is the link for the 2017 ride............
