Orrville Cycling Club Information

USCF Logo The Orrville Cycling Club, based in Orrville, Ohio, is a United States Cycling Federation (USCF) sanctioned club. Regular weekly rides are scheduled on Wednesday evenings at 6:00 p.m. between the beginning of Daylight Saving Time in March and it's demise in November. Post-season rides even include night time "Amish Road Rides" if weather permits. (Check the OCC Forum.) Once winter sets in, a group of members rides rollers on Wednesdays at the Orrville Cycling & Fitness bike shop.

Club Photos LinkWednesday night club rides start at 6:15 p.m. from the Orrville Cycling and Fitness bike shop. Rides are generally organized into three groups and maps are provided for each. For the A group riders the pace is fast and usually hilly with average speeds of 21 to 24 mph and flat accelerations sometimes approaching 34 mph. Sprints at city/county lines are not uncommon. A second group of B riders start out a minute later and follow a slightly shorter version of the same route. The pace is typically 18-22 mph. Finally, the C group starts out on the shortest route at a more friendly and casual pace. Everyone ends up back at the bike shop at sunset. Use the MapQuest feature below for directions to the bike shop.

Many club members are USCF licensed and participate in regional USCF races wearing the Orrville Cycling Club jersey and sponsored by the businesses you see on side bars of this webpage. In mid August the club sponsors the yearly Smith's Dairy Milk Race, a 30-50 mile circuit race in beautiful Wayne County.

In the Fall, many riders switch over to cyclocross season. The club sponsors and stages Orrville Cross, a 2-4 stage points series scheduled for Sundays in October.
