Whether it's a gravel bike, road bike, mountain bike, commuter, X-Bike or BMX, we'd love to see what you're riding.

Share a photo of your bike and tell us:

• Make and model
• Any upgrades or customizations
• Your favorite place to ride
• What you love most about it

Be sure to include a photo of the drivetrain side if possible. We want to see those components!

Check out the comments, show some love to fellow riders, and don't be afraid to ask questions or share tips.

I think it has the potential to be really fun to give people a chance to share their bikes and ask about their builds. (Selfishly, I want to talk to someone who has Crazy Bars because I'm seriously considering them.) It could even become a weekly or monthly thread.

Dusted off the gravel bike and headed over to Forest Hill Park. While it's clearly suffering from a lot of neglect, I was surprised by the number of great off-road trails you can still enjoy. I got to take in all kinds of wildlife, including deer, squirrels, chipmunks, groundhogs, and even a skunk. I don't think I've ever seen another cyclist there, but it's a really great spot.

The US Senate is considering restricting the types of roads that receive federal funding for bike infrastructure. This could include arterial roads that receive funding for bike lanes, trails and multi-use paths. This occurring as the funding for federal surface transportation programs is up for renewal on September 30th. Language has been suggested to senators by the current Transportation Secretary that would restrict funding and remove existing bike infrastructure for certain roads that receive federal funding.

There’s a decent write-up from the Sierra Club on this.

What can you do? You can write to senators Husted and Moreno voicing your concerns. I know that this would likely have limited effect but it would still be good for them to know that this is an issue that constituents care about. More long term, make sure you vote this November, Senator Husted’s seat is on the ballot.

Is the construction on North Marginal done (enough) that I can bike from W 3rd through Bratenahl? I don’t mind being in the road as long as it’s still paved lol.

Metroparks site isn’t clear to me what the state is.

Was cycling down the trail this weekend and realize that it switched to dirt at one point. Does it ever switch back to paved?

Did anyone notice the sheer volume of riders getting flat tires in the Cleveland Fundo today? There were also tiny fragments of glass all over the route through Cleveland. This is my 4th year riding and I never remember the roads being this bad.

I got a flat at mile 14, changed my tube, and got it to full pressure at the 16 mile test stop. I then got another flat on the same tire at mile 26, right at the 30/60 mile split. At that point, I was done and had to get a ride back.

Did anyone else have a bad experience this year? I never remember seeing that many people with flats.

Added bonus, if you bike or walk to the market we'll give you a $10 voucher to use with the vendors. Hope to see you there!

Looking to get a bike fit done, does anyone have any suggestions? I'm on the east side, but willing to drive anywhere under an hour.

ALERT: Towpath Trail Closures - Know before you go!

All Closures and detours will be posted here. Know before you go!

Had it about three hours today and hit all Tremont lanes and went down to metro and back a couple times, really stoked to have it! Cheers!

Today at 2:30pm.

Hiya! The title is pretty self explanatory, I’m trying to find out what the crit race scene is like in NEO? and there is a ton of old and conflicting info online?

Anyways if anyone knows of any good races in the NEO area that would be great!

Hi all! I’m originally from Aurora and am considering a move to Cleveland to be closer to my parents in the next few years. I’ve been living on the west coast and have gotten used to living in more walkable cities and biking to work.

Thinking about moving back home, I’m wondering - what’s the transit/biking situation in Cleveland these days?? What neighborhoods would you recommend I explore when I visit? So much has changed since I last lived in OH and I’m very out of the loop!

Obviously it would be nice to know where I’d be working in this hypothetical scenario and I’d still be driving to see my folks way out there, but I’m curious about general suggestions first!

Bike Cleveland just launched their Bike Lane Sweeper Pilot Program, and they are looking for volunteers to tow a hybrid sweeper behind their bikes to clean up Cleveland's lanes.

Here is what you need to know if you want to sign up:

What is the sweeper?

It’s a hybrid tow-behind unit that can either sweep debris into an onboard hopper ("pick up" mode) or clear it to the side ("push aside" mode). Because it is heavy and pulling it up Cleveland's hills takes some serious leg power, they highly recommend using an e-bike, though strong riders on standard bikes can do it too.

Is your bike compatible?

• The Hitch: It uses a standard Burley brand trailer mount that attaches to your rear quick-release skewer on the left-hand side.
• If your bike uses a thru-axle or needs a special adapter, you’ll need to provide your own Burley-compatible adapter for now.

How pickup and drop-off works:

• Location: Ohio City Bicycle Co-Op (OCBC)
• Hours: Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
• Limit: Only one volunteer per day to allow the sweeper's battery to cool down and fully recharge.

How to sign up:

1. Read their sweeper guide and watch the quick operating video to make sure you don't accidentally damage the unit.
2. Fill out the Bike Cleveland Waiver.
3. Book your slot on the calendar at the bottom of the page.

Good evening, ladies and germs! u/ghostofthearcade here, and I'm so excited to join the mod team here at r/BikeCLE. My goal is to help foster a strong sense of community and engagement among local riders, turning this space into not just a clearinghouse of information about local rides, but also a hub for resources and unity.

A little bit about me:

• The Move: I relocated here in January 2025 from coastal Georgia (and yes, I love the winter here).

• The Ride: I’ve ridden all kinds of bikes over the years, Mostly Japanese Steel bikes from the 80's, but these days I'm on a Priority Apollo.

• The Background: I’ve previously spent time volunteering at bicycle co-ops in my previous life. Previously I commuted by bike and am a huge fan of riding not only for leisure but also for utility.

If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions for the sub, please don't hesitate to let me know in the comments below or send us a ModMail.

For years, this has been a no-brainer dream: bike from home to the Broadview Heights Recreation Center without risking your life. It's less than a mile away, but right now you have to load your bike into a car just to get there safely.

The problem? Broadview Road has no sidewalks or safe crossings. With traffic hitting 35 MPH, it's genuinely dangerous for anyone on foot or on a bike. The 2,200 residents of Macintosh Farms and the wider community are basically locked out from safely accessing the Cleveland Metroparks trail system that's right there.

I started a petition asking the city to build sidewalks and crossings along Broadview Road. It's not just about convenience—it's about safety, connecting families to outdoor recreation, and building a community where you don't have to drive everywhere. The Metroparks are so close. This should be walkable.

Has anyone else felt stuck trying to access green spaces safely? Or wished your neighborhood was actually connected to the amenities right nearby? If this matters to you, consider signing and sharing—it'd mean a lot.

We cannot make it to Ragbrai this year due to unforseen circumstance and would love to sell the passes to folks who could put them to good use! Let me know if you are interested, thank you and bike safe.

Share your near miss experiences with the city so they can improve our streets! This doesn't have to be you directly, you can report as a witness.
