New Bicycling Club

  • Don't you think it's time we all became more physically active? Beginning this summer, I and a few friends will be riding 5 miles every day. If any of you would like to join our Bike Club, please let me know and we can make arrangements. I think it would be appropriate to ride somewhere between 4:00 and 7:00 pm. We can call it happy hour, if it will make you say "yes." I have enclosed a photo of my bike. Click on the photo to see it better.

Group Ride Home Starts This Friday

Starting this Friday, all bike commuters that work downtown and live up north (Short North, Victorian Village, Campus, Clintonville, Beechwold, Upper Arlington, Grandview, Worthington, Cleveland) are invited to join us each Friday at 5 pm in front of the State House for a group ride home. We'll meet at 5 pm at the McKinley Statute and leave at 5:10 sharp. We'll ride en masse up High Street and folks can peel off as we reach their neighborhood or turn off. Those interested and of legal age will likely detour through a neighborhood bar.

By doing this we will accomplish several things:

         1. Have some fun and fellowship (is that a chauvinistic word?....."peopleship" doesn't sound right).

         2. Publicize bicycle commuting along one of Columbus' main streets.

         3. Start changing the consciousness of our community.

Please try to join us........I imagine the group will be pretty small now, but will grow as the weather gets warmer. I hope to see you Friday!

This is a great idea! I commute the opposite way though. :-(
If anyone commute from Crossroads south on 23, I'm always looking for someone to do the death march over the 270 split with!
