Bicycle tour returning to county
Bicyclists from across northeast Ohio and western Pennsylvania will gather Sunday to celebrate spring with a long-standing annual touring tradition. The tour, known as Spring in Columbiana County, Ohio (SICCO), originated in 1995. It is sponsored by the Out-Spokin' Wheelmen bicycling club, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. The regional event, in which all cyclists are invited to ride, will begin at 8 a.m. in Firestone Park, 347 E. Park Ave. The main cycling route is a flat-to-rolling 35-mile loop through small towns and scenic countryside, which includes the Little Beaver Creek Greenway Trail. Participants will ride at their own paces during the 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. event, with support vehicles available for riders needing assistance. SICCO will be held rain or shine. A snack stop will be at the rail station in historic downtown Lisbon. After they complete the 35-mile loop, riders will receive a Pizza Hut lunch. Participants can then opt to ride an additional 28-mile loop to achieve a total of 63 miles. The $35 ride fee includes the snack and lunch. Helmets are mandatory. Riders may register online at outspokinwheelmen.com or in person from 8 to 10 a.m. Sunday at Firestone Park. For information call Dave Hughes at 330-692-2468.
