Promoting long distance unsupported cycling in the Pittsburgh region
Meanville Greenville 200K
October 19 @ 7:00 am - 8:30 pm EDT
$10.00We offered this in the early spring…it was such a lovely ride that I wanted to offer it again as a fall foliage oppurtunity
Starting in scenic downtown Zelienople, we’ll head north, skirting New Castle and pausing in New Wilmington on the way to our first Sheetz stop in Greenville. Then, we head southeast through Mercer to our second Sheetz in Slippery Rock, before heading south through Portersville to return to the start.
UPDATE 04/16/2024: I (Dan) car-scouted the route from Zelienople (Mile 0) to Slippery Rock (mile 98) on 04/14/2024; Bill Huber was kind enough to verify the leg from Slippery Rock to Zelie.
There’s a minor detour at mile 22.7 due to road closure. Detour consists of a left on East Moffat Rd to a right on 168, then left on Eastbrook Neshannock Falls to rejoin the route. This adds roughly a mile of flattish riding.
Also, note that there are several long stretches with no services, especially in the first half of the route.
