We regret to announce that our 4th Annual London Strawberry Festival Bicycle Tour has been cancelled.

Our 4th Annual Public Auction takes place on Saturday, May 20. GOBA arrives in London on Friday, June 23 with up to 3000 cyclists. Preparations for these events makes it impossible for our organization to devote the time and funds required to make the bike tour the quality event that our participants have come to expect.

We apologize for any inconvenience or disappointment.

We would still like to encourage everyone to attend the London Strawberry Festival, and perhaps plan to ride the Ohio to Erie Trail from London to South Charleston during your visit.

We look forward to seeing everyone in 2007 for the London Strawberry Festival Bicycle Tour.

Preparations are under way for our 4th Annual Public Auction. We sincerely appreciate any donations you might wish to make!
