Starting ride Saturday morning up in Cleveland and heading down to Cincinnati. Any suggestions or tips and tricks? Riding a giant contend 3 on 30 mm. Appreciate any information.
Sounds great! I suggest lowering the legs of your rear rack as low as possible toward the rear hub – the seat stays are strong, but weight pressing down on the middle seems risky. If you can attach the rack directly to your frame it would be even better (I see an eyelet). Have a great ride and report back here!

You will be fine. The trail is mostly paved. Worse part is single track in Cuyahoga NP. Weather is great so mud is not a problem. Leaves are changing.
It is a nice ride combining urban, suburban and rural.
