Sixth-generation farmer Austin Heil created the Cursive Ohio charitable bike ride as a one-time thank you to people he met while finishing his first half IM Ohio. Ten years on, Heil draws riders to the Ada area for a beautiful, flat outing where they follow a route that spells O-h-I-o in cursive letters.
