For the 2010 State Time Trial Championships, Colavita Ohio and Team COBC submitted bids which were reviewed by Stan Huffman, TJ Turner, and Rudy Sroka, a 3 – 0 decision in favor of the Groveport Grand Prix event.

Many thanks to the members of the committee for their time and assistance in the decision making process.
