The accommodations exceeded our expectations. Each place was expecting us and prepared for our arrival. A ride with GPS was a gift, especially getting to the accommodations each night. I appreciated the information for dining at each of the locations. My husband has already engaged your services for the Fall 2025 Ohio to Erie Trail.

Thanks for supporting and providing us with a trip we will never forget.

The Cincinnati Bridge is a magnificent sight to see, and if you’re riding the Ohio to Erie Trail, you’ll get a front row view! The bridge’s full name is the John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge, and it was the longest suspension bridge in the world when it opened in 1867.

The trip was wonderful. The accommodations were great! The pace of the trip was fine, we were able to complete each day without too much trouble. Everything we asked was answered promptly and everything was set up perfectly.

Thanks again for such a great trip. We are already discussing coming back and doing the GAP in the future.

The Empire State Trail is 750 miles of pure New York charm. Quiet country roads, riverside paths, cute towns, and even a stretch that takes you right into Manhattan. It’s actually the longest multiuse trail in the country, but it doesn’t feel overwhelming. It just feels like freedom on two wheels.

Looking for your next scenic adventure? The Erie Canalway Trail stretches 360 miles from Buffalo to Albany, following the historic Erie Canal through charming towns, peaceful countryside, and beautiful river views.

It's mostly flat and easy to ride, making it perfect for a laid-back getaway with a little history sprinkled in. Think Niagara Falls, old canal locks, and peaceful moments by the water. Add this one to your list. It's such a good one. Ready to ride? Let’s start planning!
