Loving all the looks of wonder we're getting while running errands on a rainy Saturday in our cargo bike, hopefully some folks are rethinking their car necessity even in our leafy suburb
We have all seen traffic control signs on the trails and Stark county now has a speed trailer. Can anyone cite any ACTUAL Ohio Revised Code pertaining to the “rules” while in the towpath or other bike friendly trails in Ohio?
I'll be moving to the city in a couple of months for work. I'm coming from Michigan and have been super lucky to be able to bike commute to work for the last 2-3 years.
How is the ride from Ohio City to CC main hospital? Is it suicide with the cars?
This Kona Rove (AL 650 in blue, 48 cm) was just stolen from the downtown Cleveland library. If you see it around town or for sale online, please give me a shout!
Thought for sure they would be done a couple weeks ago, but still needed to take a detour. Wondering how I should plan my next ride. If still closed, is there a date for completing the road construction?
The street has been cleared for days but most of the bike lane is still pretty unrideable. I just wish clearing and cleaning it was a bigger priority especially because it is the route I commute on.
just moved to Lakewood from out of state. Is there somewhere I can / should register my bike? I'm in Bike Index but wondering if there's a local registry as well. Thanks!
What are your thoughts about indoor training? Have some of you tried it? Want to try ROUVY out. Any tips? Worth it?
So I got influenced by Tik Tok and really want to start using my bike to get around more places and be able run my errands in my neighborhood by bike. I am just very confused on how I should be biking here though! I’m in the west side suburbs so no bike lanes and no convenient bike paths places like I see online, mostly using my bike for 1-2 maybe 3 mile trips so far. Do I still use the street or are the sidewalks ok? I’m slow, with a kinda heavy 3 speed bike, not sure if that matters or not but Im very nervous about holding up traffic behind me. And honestly worried about looking strange since no one is really biking around here :( There’s not much pedestrian foot traffic to worry about, am I ok if I just pay attention to driveways and ride on sidewalks or is it always a bad idea? The only people I see use the street with their bikes look like serious cyclists, road bike, spandex, etc.
In the suburbs, how concerned do I need to be with locking up my bike if I stop at a store or stay inside a coffee shop for an hour or two? l do lock up most of the time unless I’m just popping in to grab something quick, but just have a cable lock atm. I am thinking of getting a u-lock or folding lock instead. I've saved the serial number and have thought about hiding an air tag on my bike too. Half the bikes I see out places aren’t even locked at all and there don’t seem to be a lot of bike racks around here. I don’t know what the etiquette of what I can lock to and where and how far away I should lock my bike if there’s no rack.
looking to do a ride at like 3/4 am from lakewood towards the east end of the bike trail. hows the traffic/neighborhoods you pass through?
I'm planning to make my first family biking trip along the towpath in Cuyahoga Valley National Park this weekend. I discovered last night that I will need new tires before a big excursion far from home.
I have always been wanting to go to a slimmer tire than the 32mm that came with my bike. Will a 28 or 30mm tire be too narrow for the gravel on this path?
Hello, thanks for clicking! I know this doesn’t really have to do with biking but I KNOW you guys had to have come across some awesome spots. I’m currently 15 weeks pregnant and after doing specific blood test, my gender results are to be coming in sometime this or next week! I do not plan on having streamers or smoke like a usual reveal but instead, just a cake. I would like this to be an intimate moment between me and my husband. We’ve always enjoyed going to the metro parks and just exploring on and off path. I’m looking for something that’s not a pavilion but a pretty spot in the forest with a picnic table or something similar. Im also open to other ideas that aren’t a forest, just some were outdoorsy and pretty. We live in the Cleveland area so we’re looking for something within 30/40 minutes away from there. Thank you again :)
Looking for a good place for a 30 something adult to learn to ride. Paved. Very light incline. We're in Old Brooklyn. Willing to travel.
I'll be moving to Cleveland in the next year or so and am curious what to do if I can't find a bike rack. Is it legal for me to lock my bike to a street sign?
Sheeeesh
I was thinking about going on my first Slow Roll tonight, but have been trouble finding out where rides end. I see plenty of posts about the start location.
Do rides typically loop back around to the start location, or is it more like Critical Mass where rides meander around town a bit before hitting a different end destination?
Hi - are there self-wash car washes by the major MTB trails where I can wash my bike after a ride?
Leaving Minneapolis to climb Mt Washington and riding whatever in between.
Looking to convert my trusty old Cannondale Killer V500 mountain bike to an e-bike. Are there any shops or local bike mechanics anyone can recommend who might handle this? Coming up empty so far in the Lake County area. Thanks…
Just moved to Cleveland living around Beachwood/Shaker Heights. What are some roads or areas y’all avoid in Cleveland?
