Biking the Ohio to Erie Trail (OTET) - Amazing Self-Supported 385 Mile Ride

Ohio to Erie Trail by Bicycle - Amazing Self-Supported 6-Day Ride. For six days in September 2023, I traveled, self-supported, along the 326 miles of the Ohio to Erie Trail (OTET), stretching from Cincinnati to Ohio, as well as an additional 59 miles after to reach my home in Huron, Ohio. In this video, I share the different sections of the trail, trail surfaces and conditions, lodging options I chose and a description of the trail and my journey. By the end, I covered 385 miles over six days through perfect weather and riding conditions.
