SUMMARY:Spring Series\, Monongahela - Castleman's Run - Waynesburg 200K ACP Brevet
DESCRIPTION:For 2023\, a new 200K 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 Sheetz in Waynesburg\, and a return to the start. \nRegistration closes: Thursday April 13th 2023 \nInspection opens: Saturday April 15th 6:30 AM \nRequirements: current RUSA membership\, signed waiver\, headlight/taillight/reflective gear \nRide start: Saturday April 15th 7:00 AM (13:30 time limit) \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. \n  \nRoute:\n﻿

SUMMARY:Winter Warmup\, Kittens and Puppies 100K ACP Populaire
DESCRIPTION:In order to avoid the increasingly unpleasant Rt 51\, but still enjoy some familiar and mellow Ohio farm road riding\, the Kittens & Puppies 100K starts in Monaca\, PA at the Monaca Riverfront Park. It’s an out-and-back\, wherein we’ll head north through Beaver to a stop in Koppel at Al’s Corner\, then to the turnaround at the Subway in New Middletown Ohio\, at which point we’ll retrace our path. \nRegistration closes: Thursday March 16th 2023 \nInspection opens: Saturday March 18th 8:30 AM \nRequirements: current RUSA membership\, signed waiver \nRide start: Saturday March 18th 9:00 AM (6:40 time limit) \nRoute:

SUMMARY:Winter Warmup\, Pittsburgh Trails 100K ACP Populaire
DESCRIPTION:To kick off our Winter Warmup\, we’ll enjoy a tour of the trail system near Pittsburgh.

SUMMARY:June 18\, 2022: 400K
DESCRIPTION:For our spring 400K\, we’re dusting off an older route: an out-and-back from Neville Island to the far side of Akron\, Ohio. \nStarting at the Fairfield Inn & Suites on Neville Island under the I-79 bridge (with a Speedway conveniently located just across the street)\, we’ll take advantage of the early hour to shoot up 51 through Monaca\, then cross the Ohio and head to Beaver Falls. From there\, we’ll strike westward through East Palestine and Columbiana to the controle in Salem. 40ish miles of rolling Ohio roads lead to the outskirts of Akron proper. There\, we’ll turn north and head for the turnaround in Brecksville\, reversing the route from there. \n  \nHere’s the preliminary route\, pending revision: \n﻿

SUMMARY:May 21\, 2022: 300K
DESCRIPTION:A classic adventure route\, this 300K out-n-back includes everything from post-industrial urban neighborhoods to short steep stretches of unpaved trail…plus plenty of Sheetz stops. \nUpdate 05/13/2022: As Bob Gregory noted\, it is possible that water levels behind the Connemaugh Dam are high enough that the trail around mile 41 may be a bit more than merely damp. In that case\, there’s a detour available starting at the trailhead at mile 38.6; it’s an on-road leg that adds one mile and 100′ of climbing. I will attempt to verify passability the day of the ride; but I will certainly accept GPS tracks that take the bypass. \n  \n\nTLDR: Register by Thursday night 05/19/2022\, be a RUSA member\, sign a waiver\, use Electronic Proof of Passage\, and let me know by Wednesday if you want a brevet card\, paper cue sheet\, or have any problems signing up. Let me know when you’re done with the ride. \n1) Are you officially signed up? Registration closes Thursday night. No day-of registration will be offered.\n   1a) You have to be a current member of RUSA in order to get credit. If you’re not one\, please sign up or renew ASAP\, and let me know now\, so that I can politely nudge the membership committee.\n   1b) We hate and fear liability. As part of signing up for the brevet\, you should have signed a waiver\, and gotten a confirmation via email. If you did not\, please do so here\, or let me know before the ride starts.\n\n2) We’re cutting-edge. We are strongly encouraging use of Electronic Proof of Passage(EPoP)\, rather than olde-tyme brevet cards.\n   2a) What’s EPoP? A GPS record of your ride (RideWithGPS\, Strava\, Garmin…basically\, anything that you can send me a link to view and I can use to verify where you were and when you got there).\n   2b) What if my GPS dies? How do I get credit? As a fallback\, I recommend saving receipts from each controle just in case. Pictures of yourself at controles can also work\, but only if time/location stamped.\n   2c) What if I really want a brevet card? Let me know by Wednesday night\, and I’ll make one up for you.\n\n\n3) Want to know where you’re going? By default\, cue sheets are electronic. I *might* have a paper copy or two at the start\, but\, if you know you’ll need one\, please print one at home\, or please let me know by Wednesday night.\n\n4) What to do after the ride ends? Please text (412 915 6206) or email me to let me know that you’re in\, and please send me the link to your GPS track.\n  \nCue sheet\, pending final revision (opens in new window)
