Cleveland Cobbles

That time of year again. The spring classics are starting, and that means it's time for Cleveland Cobbles. Cleveland Cobbles is an unsupported group ride through Old Brooklyn and Tremont areas of Cleveland linking as many brick roads together as possible.

We will roll out of the E 49th st. Ohio & Erie Canal Reservation at 10am. The ride is roughly a 30 mile loop; which consist of some fun hill climbs. I will put up a map for those that are interested at a later time once I figure out the exactish route.

In the spirit of the classics, road bikes are preferred; however do not worry if you do not have a road bike. All are welcomed. In the same vein, this ride will be held rain, shine, or snow.

Hope to see you out.
