Saturday, July 12, 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.

Since several folks have asked what I'm doing on Ride the Dog this Saturday, here it is. I'll be rolling out on the 50 mile route with Bob Burkhardt at 7:30 a.m. from Auto Zone parking lot. Bob will be riding a 2+ pace. I'll start out at that pace but may eventually drop back to a 2* Join us if that sounds like your ride too!
