RideUNITED, the new regional bicycle tour event will be held Sun 6/5 and is designed to promote healthy living through cycling and to support the health and human service programs funded by United Way in this region.
Watch the video as Dr. Ned Hill, United Way Volunteer and CSU Professor of Economic Development and Dean of the Levin College of Urban Affairs, enthusiastically describes the five different scenic bike route options which allow riders to tour such inspiring areas as Tremont, Steelyard Commons, and the Scenic Byways and Towpath Trail, with its amazing flora, covered bridges, canal scenes and sights such as Indian Mound, Beaver Marsh, Blue Heron Falls and Horseshoe Pond.
The event is a true regional collaboration between Cleveland State University, United Way of Greater Cleveland, United Way of Summit County, the University of Akron, the City of Cleveland, the City of Akron, the National Park Service and the MetroParks systems in both Cuyahoga and Summit Counties.
Riders can sign up and find out about the lowered fees, and those interested in sponsorships can find out more at rideunited.org or by contacting Michelle Battle at mbattle@unitedwaycleveland.org or 216-436-2121.
