Lexington and Mt. Vernon, Ohio Group Bike rides and Cycling Events

Rides & Events

Local Bicycle Rides

Rides require, at minimum, an appropriate bike in good working order, water, and a helmet. Our night rides require suitable lights front and rear. We suggest a spare tube, energy food, maybe a little cash in case we stop, and your biggest smile! Many rides are held subject to weather. It's a good idea to confirm dates, time and any specific requirements, too. We'll see you out there — and have fun!

Our Weekly Group Rides

Our Weekly bicycle rides require a safe operating bicycle, helmet and rear flashing light (Daytime visible). Our night rides require a front and rear light as well. Proper nutrition, hydration, and flat changing items are highly recommended.

Sep 14, 2019	Race to the Roost at Camp Tuscazoar	Camp Tuscazoar	Noteworthy adventure often begins with a team of two. Painful, soul testing experience that pushes one's perceived concept of possible is better when shared. It takes two to make-a things go right. It is with this understanding that we invite you to find a partner in crime and join 331 Racing and the Dirt Line Organization for the TUSCAZOAR TWAIN REIGN OF PAIN. Tackling one of Ohio's newest trail systems, Camp Tusc is a cross country course with narrow single track, exposed roots, tire chewing rocks, and 1200' of steep climbing per 5.5 mile lap that will reveal breath taking, oxygen deprived vistas.
