SUMMARY:Hickory Hills 100K Populaire
DESCRIPTION:Okay\, first off\, let me be clear…it’s actually 108K\, if that deters anyone 🙂 \nThis one has a majority of smoothly paved roads (but a few miles of unpaved dirt and occasional gravel to keep it interesting). \nStarting at the Park-n-Ride lot in downtown Carnegie\, PA\, we take advantage of the early hour to avoid the worst of the crazed shopper traffic on Rt 50 in Heidelberg\, before taking classic cycling roads Thoms Run/Presto-Sygan/Millers Run to rejoin 50 in Cecil Township. After crossing under the Montour Trail in Venice\, we’ll gradually climb to Hickory before enjoying a long fast descent to our first controle at the Avella Uni-Mart. \nWe’ll then do our best to avoid roads with any paint on them for the next twenty miles or so miles\, until we join Steubenville Pike and head east to our next controle at the Florence Grab-n-Go. \nAfter a very brief stint on trafficky Rt 18\, we’ll try to avoid consistent pavement entirely as we pass through Hillman State Park\, with a pause at the Lyle Covered Bridge for a photo controle. \nContinuing eastward\, we’ll pass through more country roads (as well as an enormous Amazon distribution facility) through Imperial PA to a short stint on the Montour Trail and another photo controle\, this time at the Enlow Tunnel. \nFinally\, we’ll climb back up the ridge\, then make our way to Carnegie via the reverse of our classic Ewing Rd/Ridge Rd/Bayer Rd route. \nRegistration closes: Thursday April 30th\nInspection opens: Saturday May 2nd 6:30 AM\nRide start: SaturdayMay 2nd 7:00 AM (06:45 time limit) \nRequirements: current RUSA membership\, signed waiver \nEPoP: Due to abject laziness on the part of your humble RBA\, we default to electronic proof of passage (e.g Strava or other GPS track) in the Pittsburgh region brevets. That said\, if you prefer olde-schoole printed paperwork such as cue sheets or brevet cards\, I’m happy to provide them…just let me know at least three days in advance of the event\, so that I have time to prepare and print. \nRoute: \n

RWGPS route has been updated accordingly. \nRegistration closes: Friday March 6th 2026 \nInspection opens: Sunday March 8th 8:30 AM \nRequirements: current RUSA membership\, signed waiver \nRide start: Sunday March 8th 9:00 AM (6:40 time limit) \nRoute: \n

SUMMARY:North Park Social Ride
DESCRIPTION:We had intended to offer a 100K populaire\, but attendance has been low enough that we’re canceling it in favor of an informal social ride out of North Park with drinks and food at OTB afterwards. \n  \nThe plan\, such as it is\, is to assemble at noon and figure out where we’re riding from there\, based on attendees’ preferences and the weather forecast.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED - Lazing Through Layton 100K Populaire
DESCRIPTION:CANCELLED as of 08/06/2025. Check out the Rough Diamond Century instead. \n  \n  \n  \nIt was nice enough to offer again.

SUMMARY:Mingo Creek Meander 100K Populaire
DESCRIPTION:This (relatively) gentle populaire lets us explore in the south a bit…starting with familiar roads through New Eagle and Monongahela (with the opportunity to visit the freshly rebuilt and reopened Sheetz)\, then up the Mon River through Charleroi and Belle Vernon to the tiny town of Roscoe and the first significant climb of the day. After the summit\, we’ll drop to Coal Center (beware of distracting river valley views to your left as you plummet!) and head west away from the river to mostly quiet country roads for the next 25 miles\, before heading north to Eighty Four and a familiar return to the park via Sugar Run Rd. \nThe route is back-loaded on climbing\, but front-loaded on traffic; and\, given our 7 AM start\, even that nominal traffic should be fairly minimal while we pass along the more heavily traveled segment by the river. \nSupply Controles: \nSunoco in  Charleroi\, mile 17 \nPadidle Donuts in Beallsville\, mile 35 \nCoen Markets in Eighty Four\, mile 55 \nRegistration closes: Thursday July 3rd\nInspection opens: Saturday July 5th 6:30 AM\nRide start: Saturday July 5th 7:00 AM (06:45 time limit) \nRequirements: current RUSA membership\, signed waiver \nEPoP: Due to abject laziness on the part of your humble RBA\, we default to electronic proof of passage (e.g Strava or other GPS track) in the Pittsburgh region brevets.

SUMMARY:AMCUP 100K Populaire
DESCRIPTION:Running in conjunction with the AMCUP 200K\, both events leave Ohiopyle at 7 AM and share the same initial route over Sugarloaf into Confluence \nAfter Confluence\, we’ll make our way north through Kingwood and New Lexington before heading towards Normalville via the dreaded Jim Mtn Rd climb. Finally\, after crestijng Laurel Ridge\, we’ll enjoy a multi-mile descent into Connellsville\, where the GAP trail will provide a flat\, albeit limestone-covered and likely busy\, respite on the way back to Ohiopyle. \nThis is NOT a gentle 100K…be ye warned… \nNOTE: The descent on Sugarloaf has some very poor stretches of road\, starting around mile 6.2. Use extreme caution! \nRegistration closes: Thursday June 5th 2025 \nInspection opens: Saturday June 7th 6:30 AM \nRequirements: current RUSA membership\, signed waiver \nRide start: Saturday June 7th 7:00 AM (07:37 time limit) \nRoute: \n

SUMMARY:Kittens and Puppies Monaca 100K Populaire
DESCRIPTION:Taking the pleasant Ohio-based portions of our classic Kittens and Puppies route\, but skipping the ever-worsening segment on Rt 51\, this is a pleasant jaunt into eastern Ohio and back.\nThe ride starts and ends in Monaca\, PA\, at Pump House Park. (Note that there is parking at several locations scattered around the park\, all within a few hundred feet of one another). \n  \nScouting notes\, April 2nd 2025: \n– Construction on River Road (mile 10/mile 55): one lane road\, with traffic signal to control traffic flow. \n– Construction on 170 in New Middleton: 170 is closed past the Subway at the turnaround\, so shouldn’t directly affect the route: do watch for poorer-than-usual road surface and unusual traffic patterns\, though. \n  \nRegistration closes: Thursday April 3rd 2025 \nInspection opens: Saturday April 5th 8:30 AM \nRequirements: current RUSA membership\, signed waiver \nRide start: Saturday April 5th 9:00 AM (6:40 time limit) \nRoute: \n

SUMMARY:Mingo Creek Meander
DESCRIPTION:This (relatively) gentle populaire lets us explore in the south a bit…starting with familiar roads through New Eagle and Monongahela (with the opportunity to visit the freshly rebuilt and reopened Sheetz)\, then up the Mon River through Charleroi and Belle Vernon to the tiny town of Roscoe and the first significant climb of the day. After the summit\, we’ll drop to Coal Center (beware of distracting river valley views to your left as you plummet!) and head west away from the river to mostly quiet country roads for the next 25 miles\, before heading north to Eighty Four and a familiar return to the park via Sugar Run Rd. \nThe route is back-loaded on climbing\, but front-loaded on traffic; and\, given our 7 AM start\, even that nominal traffic should be fairly minimal while we pass along the more heavily traveled segment by the river. \nSupply Controles: \nSunoco in  Charleroi\, mile 17 \nPadidle Donuts in Beallsville\, mile 35 \nCoen Markets in Eighty Four\, mile 55 \nRegistration closes: Thursday October 3rd\nInspection opens: Saturday October 5th 6:30 AM\nRide start: Saturday October 5th 7:00 AM (06:45 time limit) \nRequirements: current RUSA membership\, signed waiver \nEPoP: Due to abject laziness on the part of your humble RBA\, we default to electronic proof of passage (e.g Strava or other GPS track) in the Pittsburgh region brevets. That said\, if you prefer olde-schoole printed paperwork such as cue sheets or brevet cards\, I’m happy to provide them…just let me know at least three days in advance of the event\, so that I have time to prepare and print. \nRoute: \n
