GOBA visits Athens County and Hub Bubs go to the staff at Tourism and All Volunteers

Hats off to the staff at Athens County Tourism for bringing the Great Ohio Bike Adventure to Southeast Ohio and to all of the volunteers who participated in the seven planning committees for the event: Campground Logistics, Emergency Planning, Transportation, Housing, Food, Entertainment and Information.

Jenna Dill, Paige Alost, Emily Maluski, Natalie Woodroofe, and all of the diligent volunteers provided great support and promotion of our region to nearly 2500 visiting bicyclist. For their hard work we give out a much deserved Hub Bub award from Cycle Path.

Also many thanks to the volunteers and planners from Hocking, Washington, Morgan, Vinton, and Meigs County in Ohio for making GOBA 2010 a big success.

Thanks to all.

 
   

 


 

November 2005:

Bob Williams takes a Tour of Athens County and gets a Hub Bub

Pedaling more than 1641 miles atop his Cannondale M 400 over the last three years and 85 Friday afternoons, Bob Williams can officially proclaim that he has ridden every road throughout Athens County.

What made Bob take on such a quest. "I like to see new things," Williams says. " I like to discover. That's what led me to it, I suppose." His favorite road is Canaan Township road 223 which climbs up out of the Hocking River Valley from Route 50 to Thompson Ridge just Southeast of Scatter Ridge road.

For raising cycling awareness combined with a strong spirit of adventure and persistence, Cycle Path has awarded Bob a Hub Bub.
