Pawpaws and pedals are a great combination. Come enjoy the Pawpaw Double Nickel Bicycle Ride, a 55-mile self-paced tour that starts and ends at the 11th Annual Ohio Pawpaw Festival, just outside of Athens. Enjoy challenging climbs, ridgetop views and sweet downhills, all along the Raccoon Creek Watershed. A shorter loop of approximately 20 miles still features plenty of climbing but can be conquered in less time. After you're done riding, enjoy the festival! Activities include a pawpaw cook-off, a pawpaw eating contest and the ever-popular pawpaw beer garden. Click here for more information.
