THE 19TH ANNUAL RIDE CINCINNATI
More than 1,100 participants rose early on Saturday, September 13, to take on routes ranging from 30-60 miles, or to participate in the brand new 4-mile closed loop course. Kiss107’s JonJon brought his signature energy and support to the start and finish lines, along with the University of Cincinnati cheer team and the Bearcat mascot. Local band Green Light Morning performed at the Kroger Fan Zone along the 4-mile course route, with local DJs also stationed throughout the route. When they completed their rides, riders were welcomed back to Sawyer Point for a large after-party with food from local vendors, drinks, photo ops, a Banner to share their “Why I RIDE” story, and more. Riders also enjoyed a performance from local mainstays the Naked Karate Girls, and top fundraisers could experience the concert from the brand-new Western and Southern Leaderboard Lounge. Organizers would like to thank the sponsors and volunteers for their time and efforts in making this year’s ride the best yet.
