Welcome to the Ashland Cycling Enthusiasts web site!

Ashland Cycling Enthusiasts, Inc. (ACE) is a volunteer, not-for-profit organization that promotes all forms of cycling. We began meeting in January of 2003 at the YMCA in Ashland, Kentucky. Our membership continues to grow quickly as many have wanted an organized club with scheduled rides; education and safety programs as well as opportunities to socialize with others that share our interests.

ACE is not only interested in cycling as a sport but promotes bike safety and a healthier community. Members volunteer countless hours of their personal time participating annually in Our Lady of Bellefonte Hospital Bicycle Safety Camp, Share the Road signage campaigns in Kentucky and Ohio, The City of Ashland's Summer Motion, 4th of July City Parade and 10k Run and works with their Transportation Commission promoting cycling and trails, Poage's Landing Days, Chilifest at the Paramount Arts Center, Paramount Women's Association, June 21st Longest day event and State Obesity Forum in conjunction with the Boyd County Health Department, Kentucky Bicycle Commission, Kentucky Rail-Trail Council, Kentucky Economic Development and Tourism, proactive with Ohio Department of Transportation in approval of a 10ft bike lane on the new Ironton-Russell Bridge, promoted Olive Hill to Lawton trail thru KRTC, FIVCO Transportation meetings, Huntington, WV Ride for Autism and Saint Jude's Hospital Ride promoting children's health and healing.

Our rides are open to the entire Tri-State community. Our membership includes residents of Kentucky, Ohio and West Virginia.
