If you want to borrow a bike, there is a Cincy Red Bike station at the Lunken Loop North Parking Lot at the North end of Lunken Airport.
 
Guided rides will explore historic neighborhoods, landmarks, and lesser-known architectural treasures — all by bike. Whether you’re a preservation enthusiast, a casual cyclist, or someone looking to see the city through a new lens.  
  
These rides are free, open to the public, and designed to be accessible to a range of cycling abilities. So dust off your bike, invite a friend, and join us for a ride that brings Cincinnati’s stories to life — one pedal stroke at a time.
