OK- so I know this isn’t about touring, but it is about bicycles and it is so very, very cool. Cleveland, Ohio, is about to have its very own public Olympic style velodrome! I couldn’t believe it when I heard it! It’s located in Slavic Village, a little south and east of downtown. Here’s a LINK to their website. This could be a reason to come north on the Ohio to Erie trail to Cleveland on a little tour for some folks. It looks like it’s less than 5 miles along Harvard and Broadway roads from the Alcoa trail head on Harvard (the top of the Ohio and Erie Canal Towpath Trail).
