TOSRV/51

There are many rides, but only one is America¬s bicycle touring classic - The Tour of the Scioto River Valley, better known by its acronym, TOSRV. Say TOSRV to bicycle riders around the nation, and they‚Äôll know you mean this event, which began as a father-and-son outing in 1962 before quickly growing into the nation's largest bicycle touring weekend. In fact, TOSRV single-handedly raised the profile of the bicycle in American life and was the inspiration for many of the mass-participation cycling events so popular today across the country. TOSRV riders have come from across the country and have ranged in age from two to 93.

This year's TOSRV, scheduled for May 12-13, 2012, is expected to draw about 3000 riders for the 51st edition of this classic event. TOSRV is organized by Columbus Outdoor Pursuits (COP), an organization with a full range of noncompetitive outdoor activities.
