Hello! David here—I work at Westerville Bike Shop. The Ohio To Erie Trail cuts right through Westerville, which is also famous for being the birthplace of Prohibition. I’ve owned two Rivs (a Chev and a Clem) and I’m currently hunting for a Hillborne (54cm anyone?). Come check out our shop sometime, and if I’m there I’m always stoked to talk about Rivendells or biking in Ohio!
