OMBC Series #7 - Tecumseh's Revenge at Scioto Trails State Park - Chillicothe, OH

Date:  Sunday, October 5, 2025 at HIGH NOON

Annie's Race:  Annie Rooney was integral in the development of the Tecumseh's Revenge race and an avid OMBC Series Racer. Tragically, she was struck by a drunk driver who took her life. In 2017, "Annie's Law" became signed into law to help prevent similar tragedies from occurring. For everyone who was privileged to have known her, Annie's warm smile, enthusiasm for life and all things mountain biking inspired us. At Scioto Trails, we celebrate her life and the race she brought to the OMBC Race Series.
