Louisville/Jefferson County, KY-IN

Louisville sits on the Ohio River with rolling terrain that eases into flat lowlands—the Kicking Butt 5K and local parkruns favour the riverfront and Cherokee Park's gentle hills. Cyclists dominate here: the Derby City Omnium brings track racing energy, while the Old Kentucky Home Bicycle Tour (OKHT) takes riders 100km through pastoral Bourbon Country southeast of the city, with the Harvest Homecoming Bicycle Tour covering similar terrain in fall. River Road north and the trails around Jefferson Memorial Forest offer climbing practice before venturing into the knobby hills of southern Indiana.
