ABC Ride 2013

 

The ABC Ride this celebrates 50 years of Akron Bicycle Club. Starting at Copley High School on July 12, 2015. The ride showcases the rolling hills and quaint villages of Summit, Medina and Wayne counties.

The Absolutely Beautiful Country Ride provides scenic and challenging routes for families as well as experienced bicyclists. Registrants can choose 25, 50, 65 or 100 mile routes and expect ample rest stops, lunch for the 50 mile and higher routes and excellent SAG support along the routes. 
 
 
This year we introduce the FAMILY FUN ROUTE. This route takes off from Seville's Cy Hewitt Park for a 15 mile beginner friendly route through Seville and the surrounding farm lands and includes some bike trail. Riders can enjoy ice cream from Seville's Dairi Ette ice cream shop on Mill St.
  
"The ABC Ride lives up to its reputation. Great routes. Lots of food and support. Truly a fun ride." 
Cody Smith, ABC Ride participant
