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
This easy GAP ride culminates in a social gathering in Connellsville, with the option of an overnight stay and a permanent the next day as well retracing the route. Jim Logan is coordinating this event.
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. I've been getting around it by leaving Slippery Rock south on...Read more
Okay, first off, let me be clear...it's actually 108K, if that deters anyone :-) This one has a mix of traditional and new segments, with the majority of roads smoothly paved (but a few miles of unpaved dirt and occasional gravel to keep it interesting). Starting at the Park-n-Ride lot in downtown Carnegie, PA, we...Read more
UPDATE 10/15/2025: A bridge has gone astray, so the route has been revised. Please use this one: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/52976246 Based on the original permanent, Splendid Isolation takes us through Pennsylvania's Rothrock and Bald Eagle State Forests: combining remote, quiet gravel roads with beautiful scenery and a considerable amount of climbing. About 1/3 gravel. Minimum recommended...Read more

Sunlight! In honor of the 7th year of the International Women's Day Together We Ride , we'll enjoy a tour of the trail system near Pittsburgh. Only one climb of note, and a simple, pleasant way to explore the city environs without needing to duel with traffic. There's some limestone, and the vast majority of...Read more
This simple route is a pleasant jaunt into eastern Ohio and back. The 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). Registration closes: Thursday March 26th 2026 Inspection opens: Saturday March...Read more
A new populaire route for 2026! (Big thanks to RBA-In-Waiting Steve Kunsak) This Pittsbugh-traditional century route takes us on a riding tour of the Allegheny River valley as far north...Read more
Introduced just last year, this is an homage to our long-departed flat riverside K&P route on Rte 51. Unlike the original route, this one 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 a couple miles...Read more
