As Beverly stated above let us know when you will be in our area. I know all of would be glad to meet you and anyone else that can make, and show you our part of Ohio.

I live in Fairborn, OH, about 12 miles from Xenia and I ride the many rail-trails in this area all the time.

At the below website you can send for a waterproof map of all the rail-trails in the Miami Valley. They will mail you one for free. It is a really good map.

Also, if you go to the below website it has most of the latest up-to-date info on our local trails.

There are several of us here that ride these trails on a daily basis. Also, the Dayton Cycling Club (daytoncyclingclib.org) lists daily rides that are going on at that time. You do not have to be a member to join in any of these rides, and there is no cost except conversation.

If you decide to come to our area of the world please let me know and I will be glad to help with as much information as I can.

Many of us also ride the back country farm roads in this area and would be glad to provide you with maps or ride with you and show you many of the great small towns with super food stops. October is also a great time to visit the Miami.

Again, let us know your plans.
