We 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...Read more

Another classic early-season ride, starting in Homestead PA and striking east to Weirton West Virginia before returning via the south along the Mon River. Of some note is that the last 40-ish miles of this route are nearly flat (by southwestern PA standards, anyway), providing a welcome respite from our otherwise unrelenting hills. Registration closes:...Read more

New for 2025: an homage to our long-departed flat riverside K&P route, this route starts in Beaver Falls and heads west into Ohio. Although the first 4 miles are almost entirely uphill, it's a gradual climb, with a strategically placed Sheetz just around the corner from the trailhead. Registration closes: Thursday April 17th 2024 Inspection...Read more

A big thank-you to Bill Huber for letting us know about a road closure that affects the route. Per Bill: On the Greenville 200k, at mile 99.5, the bridge over Slippery Rock Creek is out and totally closed for the rest of the summer.

Ah, the AMCUP (Allegheny Mountains Cruel and Unusual Punishment) 400. It starts and finishes in Washington, PA, and includes some of the more exciting climbs in the Laurel Highlands. It also includes a mind-boggling FIVE Sheetz controles, although we do reuse them on occasion. Caveat Let me start by being very clear: this is the...Read more

A somewhat hilly route out of the Aquatorium in Monogahela. We'll head west, skirting Washington PA, until turning southbound at the West Virginia border through the Castleman's Run Nature Preserve, heading towards a controle stop at the bustling TA Travel Plaza near Valley Grove. From there, more country roads to the next controle at the...Read more

The McConnell's Mills 200K route has undergone a bit of revision since its inception: one of the controles (the Creighton Sheetz) no longer exists, and the final leg of the route passes through an area that has become quite trafficky and unpleasant later in the day. So, we've moved the start to North Park, allowing...Read more
