Ride Here! Suggested Local Routes
These routes are all on pavement.
These ride suggestions have been made available thanks to the Stark County (Ohio) Bike Club (SCBC). Every year in January and February, 50 to 60 members of the SCBC make Venice their home base for two weeks of riding. Their headquarters are at the Island Sun Inn at 625 South Tamiami Trail (across from the hospital) on the Island of Venice. Many of the rides listed start and finish from this location. These rides can easily be modified to depart from alternate Venice locations.
For each of the routes, you can view or download a PDF with a map and cuesheet. You can also click on the Map My Ride (MMR) link in the pdf to go to the MMR page and download a GPX file to your GPS.
