Saturday, July 6, will be the annual "Ride The Dog" event. This will be an opportunity for Club members to ride and check the routes for our annual invitational ride "Dog Days Wine Tour", (since we will be working on the day of the DDWT supporting the ride).
You can start your ride from the Oberlin Auto Zone lot. From there you can easily ride to Professor St. and pick up the route. Actual route starts at the college but we don’t have permission to park there. Please understand that this is basically an unsupported map ride (YOYO), with no real services or leaders. Rest stops may not be open to us in the early morning. It is advised to group up with others who wish to ride the chosen route at a similar pace. Folks intending to ride specific routes at certain times/paces and looking for companions will be posted here as known.

with all pertinent details immediately after the ride so the routes can be adjusted as needed.

Looking for riding companions. I plan to ride the 62 mile loop (if the weather cooperates) starting at 7:30 a.m. (July 6th) from the Oberlin AutoZone - changed from original Oberlin Rec start. A 3-/2+* pace with probable stops at Burnham Farms and Vermilion Valley Vineyards. If interested contact me at:

I will be riding the 50 mile route.
Pace: 2+/3-
Anyone who is like-minded is welcome to join me, just be ready to roll out at 7:30 a.m.
This is a YOYO (you're on your own) once we get started. Feel free to drop back if my pace is too fast, or ride off and leave me in the dust if i'm too slow! Please do NOT reply to the newsgroup. Contact Eva directly if you have questions.

I would like to do the lowest number of miles, 28 at a 2/2+ pace. Is anyone else going to do that ride and at what time if so?
Thanks. Marilyn Torres, mmtorres809@gmail.com
