The Great Ohio Bicycle Adventure (GOBA) has announced their route for 2026. The dates are 6/20-6//27. They will start in Norwalk OH and visit Shelby, Wooster, Ashland and then back to Norwalk. It is 7 or 8 days depending on what options you choose. Most routes are about 50 miles a day with a century option on one day. They will be spending two nights in three towns, so you have an option to take a rest day. The highlight of the week is a hot air ballon fest in Ashland, a lot shorter drive than going to Albuquerque New Mexico!
Martha and I will be going and have reserved all of our lodging. I should note some of the towns are small and have limited motel options. GOBA does provide camping sites every night as well as luggage transport.
Feel free to email me at coladog@cox.net if you would like additional information.
