LEARN MORE ABOUT THE SURVEY
Destination Cleveland, in partnership with parks, non-profits, businesses, and other travel and tourism agencies across the region is fielding a study of cyclists who have completed a bike ride of any length on the Towpath Trail.
The survey is intended to help better understand the cyclist experience on the trail, what they like, what could be improved, and better understand their wants and needs overall.
The survey takes about 10-minutes to complete, and responses are anonymous; no one will be asked to purchase anything or contacted about their responses.
Respondents will also have the opportunity to enter a drawing for a chance to win one of three great prizes:
1. $1,000 REI Gift Card
2. Browns/Steelers Tickets & night at Westin Cleveland
3. Cavs/Celtics Tickets & night at Westin Cleveland
Even if it’s been a while since you’ve been on a ride on the Towpath Trail, we encourage you to participate; the more we can learn about what cyclists like us want from a trail like the Towpath, the better the experience will be for all of us in the future.

A note from the Ohio to Erie Trail organization
This survey is for you if you rode the Ohio to Erie Trail end to end.
If you rode the whole Ohio to Erie Trail even one time, then you have ridden on PART of the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath trail which is the OTET route north of Massillon.
For the purposes of this survey, focus your answers on only the TOWPATH portion of the Ohio to Erie Trail.
The survey has a place to say that you rode the Towpath as part of the Ohio to Erie Trail, see the graphic shown where you can specify the length as being part of your OTET ride.
