Another Travel Guide to Cleveland (#nsgic2009)

Hard on the heels of the New York Times post about Cleveland, below, we're starting to get more information about this city in which NSGIC will hold its annual conference (#nsgic2009 for the cognoscenti). So let this post serve as an update-able semi-perma-post about that fair city.

In it, we can post information such as...

From Dan Widner (VA):
If you would like something fun to do on Sunday, consider a multi-modal transportation experience! The Cuyahoga Valley National Park contains the Ohio and Erie Canal Towpath. You can combine the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad with a bike rental from the Peninsula store of Century Cycles to take your bicycle onboard the train and ride back to your starting point.

From the National Park Service website:

Discover the heart of Cuyahoga Valley National Park by walking, bicycling, or running on the Towpath Trail. You can travel the historic route of the Ohio & Erie Canal on the same path that mules walked to tow canal boats loaded with goods and passengers. From the trail, you can make connections to many natural and historic sites, as well as to Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad (CVSR). Beyond the park, you can continue your journey on the Towpath Trail further along the Ohio & Erie Canalway.

What else should we know about coming in? Where, for example, are the best golf courses?

From Mike Mahaffie (DE):
Why not try using some mapping tools to note where fun things are?
