The 2009 Land of Legend Bicycle Tour

This year's ride will be on Saturday, July 11th. Registration is from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. at the Licking County Family YMCA. The tour will be a fully hosted tour with well defined routes, rest stops, plenty of food vendors along the route, SAG and, of course, cookies! We've designed this year's tour to appeal to family riders, casual road riders and the long-distance hill-climber looking for a challenge. Route options of 15, 32, 62 and 100 miles wind through the scenic back roads of Licking and Knox counties.

After your tour enjoy a fun filled day at the YMCA outdoor pool. Refreshments will be on-hand throughout the day.

This full service tour will guide cyclists through some of the most beautiful trails and back roads in Ohio. The 15 & 32 mile routes feature paved bike paths and country roads that are level to rolling with a few short hills that will take you throughout the communities and landmarks of Licking County, Ohio. The 62 & 100 mile routes present the same beauty with just a few more significant hills. Proceeds from the tour will support maintenance and preservation of the trail systems located in Licking County.
