Worthy winners will be produced on this challenging circuit that has hosted numerous races over the years, including the 2001/2002 Ohio State Championships and recent Fall Challenge Races. Our course, a scenic 8.3 mile loop which passes through Cuyahoga Valley National Park and is intended to favor the all-around rider, rather than a climbing or sprinting specialist. From the start across from Woodridge High, the course is Quick Rd. – Norton Heights Dr. – Eakins Rd. – W. Steels Corners Rd. – Haas/ Wetmore Rd. – Akron-Peninsula Rd. – Quick Rd.

All riders are welcome! Rider categories are self-assigned, subject to Chief Referee’s approval. Wearing of CPSC-approved helmet is mandatory at all times you are on your bicycle. Tandems, recumbents, and aero bars that point forward or up are not permitted (the Scott "Rake" is OK). The course is open to auto traffic, therefore, the centerline rule is in effect at all times, except the last 200 meters of the race, subject to oncoming traffic.
