With smart-guided technology, you can ride at your own pace or pace with others. The expertly designed route takes you on an in-depth journey of the sights and sounds of Ohio at the speed of bike. Voice and map-guided instructions make it easy to stay on course and avoid getting lost as you discover tasty spots, popular landmarks, and hidden gems along the way.

Do it all or do it in parts. Do it in three weeks and three days or do it in a couple of days at a time. Do it with a group, or your crew, or do it solo - you get all of the 24 smart-guided daily route links with the instructions. Do it as a bike-camping adventure or do it with overnight stays at accommodations of your choice - the smart guide can easily be used to guide you to alternative overnight locations.

Long-distance bikeway-focused tours do not get much better than this. Found all along the way are Ohio cities, towns, communities, countrysides, lakes, rivers, parks, nicely designed bikeways, forests, historical places, attractions, amusements, and memory-making spots. Even a bit of West Virginia gets into the loop.

This adventure gets your wheels on 57 bikeways of Ohio's growing, award-winning cycling infrastructure, which leads the nation in dedicated bikeway miles. Except for the starting spot, you will rarely see the same thing twice on this Long One-way Loop (LOL). Easily add to the adventure by detouring to explore numerous points of interest (see the list below).

BIKATION 2025 - OHIO starts where it ends, near Scioto Audubon Dog Park. Bring your furry friend on tour, if you wish. The overnight stays and suggested restaurant stops are partly chosen for their dog-friendly policy.

The 900-mile smart-guided route is 40% bikeway and comes with CycleNuts' 50% downhill guarantee. Except for rail-to-trail segments, the route follows the lay of the land, which in many areas is hilly to mountainous. The climbs are smoothed out as much as possible to keep the inclines under 10%, but your bike's gears will still see use on most of the segments. Where bikeways are not available, bicycle-friendly roadways chosen by bike apps are used to connect the dots. 60% of the route is on roadways.

E-bikes are appropriate for this adventure. Daily 40-mile averages between overnight stays, where batteries can be recharged, fit in with ebike battery distance standards. The 40-mile daily average also makes this long-distance adventure comfortable for not-e bike riders capable of that distance daily.
