Tecumseh's Revenge

Annie's Race

OMBC Series #7

Annie Rooney was key 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" was signed into law to help prevent similar tragedies from occurring. Annie's warm smile, enthusiasm for life and all things mountain biking inspired everyone who knew her. At Scioto Trails, we celebrate her life and the race she brought to the OMBC Race Series.
