The Across Ohio Bicycle Adventure

Active Adventure

XOBA is a seven day bicycle tour across the Buckeye State that takes a different route each year. We limit our group size to 150 in order to take advantage of and not over tax the local facilities and restaurants. The group is experienced with the average age being about 45 for the past two years. We do encourage families with teenagers and novice riders to join us, you will meet many new friends on the tour. The 55 mile per day average is a distance nearly any rider can do with some training and we rout the tour past many points of interest for the group to take advantage of. The terrain ranges from flat to hilly and from farm fields to forest.

Typical Day

Putting your luggage on the truck by 8:30 am, you are in command of the day and your schedule. The map will indicate where food and water can be obtained and fellow riders from the area will generally make suggestions on the best places to eat. In the evening we have a short group meeting (optional) to talk about the fun we had and the upcoming route for the next day. You may sleep indoors in a gym our outside in your tent. A motel list is available on request for those who want to make their own reservations.
