🚵‍♀️ What kind of bike should I ride?

Gravel or cyclocross bikes are ideal & offer added frame clearance for tires with widths of 35-50mm. They also offer lower gear ranges than road bikes which allow for climbing steeper grades, which is very common on Ohio gravel routes. Mountain bikes may also be a great option as they offer additional control over handling multiple road surfaces & sometimes tricky descents.

🚲 Can I ride a traditional road bike?

Most road bikes are missing two key components: tire clearance & low gear ranges. This doesn’t make riding a road bike impossible, but can significantly impact your enjoyment & potentially your safety.

🔧 What should I bring to have a successful ride?

Gravel riding is the adventurous cousin of road riding & is often much closer to mountain biking. You should plan to be self-sufficient with maintenance needs including flat tires & minor adjustments on the bike. An inflation kit & a multi-tool are a must.

🍎 Snacks and hydration.

Gravel routes often cover rural & remote areas with little opportunity for water & nutrition stops. Plan to bring enough for your entire ride & maybe a bit extra for a friend (just in case).

What time do the rides start?

Plan to get to the starting point in good time, get your gear together, and catch up with fellow riders. Be all set up for a relaxed start. We will gather at 9.00am for pre-ride instructions and expectations. Wheels rolling at 9:30am

Is there SAG support.

Dy definition, Gravel Rides are typically self supported. Each individual rider is responsible for packing the food, water, gear, and clothing needed for the safe navigation and completion of the ride in their own time. However if you’ve ever done one of our roll: or OGG events in the past you know we are all a friendly bunch of riders who pride ourselves on helping, encouraging and assisting each other. We look forward to sharing in a rewarding and enjoyable day on the bike together!
