Greene Trails Cycling Classic

The 2007 Greene Trails Cycling Classic brought almost 340 cyclists from 16 states and Japan into Xenia for four days.  One cyclist from Pasadena, CA, made the statement that "for a cyclist, this is better than Disneyland."

Dates for the event in 2008 are July 17 - 20.  To see more pictures or find out more about the event, go to www.greenetrailsclassic.com.

The Greene Trails Cycling Classic is designed to be a fun, family-oriented annual “happening.” It is a multi-day event centered in Xenia, Ohio, and serving to showcase the extensive rail-to-trail system that exists there - and beyond, as well as the communities along the trails. All rides will begin and end at the campground adjacent to the Greene County Fairgrounds. Each day features and utilizes a different section of the trail. Each day’s specific route(s) are supported for rider convenience and safety.  Routes include on-trail, out-and-back trips, as well as extended rides on rural roads for designated days. The broad network of trails provides an exceptional cycling experience for those families and individuals who want to take part in a bicycle or skating tour but prefer the safety and comfort of staying on the trails. Alternate routes offer a choice for the more adventurous. Each day will offer special entertainment opportunities, including tennis, volleyball, swimming, etc., mini-events, musical entertainment, and lots of other exciting surprises.  Riders "Create their own ride" by choosing the number of days and events in which to participate.
