SUMMARY:Heck Weekend\, 300K ACP Brevet
DESCRIPTION:Heck Weekend Day Two: 300K of adventure! \nAnother classic 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. \nRegistration closes: Wednesday June 14th 2023 \nInspection opens: Saturday June 17th 4:30 AM \nRequirements: current RUSA membership\, signed waiver\, headlight/taillight/reflective gear \nRide start: Saturday June 17th 5:00 AM (20:00 time limit) \nRoute:

SUMMARY:Heck Weekend\, 400K ACP Brevet
DESCRIPTION:Heck Weekend Day Three: Enjoy the Alleghenies\, and the limestone on the way back. \nAs this is emphatically not a daylight-only ride\, lights and reflective gear are mandatory. In addition\, a significant portion of the route is on unpaved or poorly maintained roads and trails\, so choose your tires wisely. \nThis route takes us east through Turtle Creek and Trafford\, picking up the Westmoreland Heritage Trail through Murrysville and Saltsburg\, where it becomes the West Penn Trail. After passing through the Conemaugh Lake recreation area (including a US Army Corps of Engineers dam and a blocked-off tunnel resembling a side door into Mordor)\, we’ll make our way to the next controle\, the Sheetz in Blairsville. A steady gradual climb over the next 30 miles (much of which is on the Ghost Town Trail) takes us to the Dunkin controle in Ebensburg. \nForsaking trail for roads over the next 80 miles or so\, we’ll head south\, traversing state game lands on our way to the Fishertown Country Market controle before heading southwest through Berlin(see note for mile 151 below)  to pick up the GAP trail in Rockwood\, at which point it is (almost literally) downhill for the next 100 miles to the overnight controle. The GAP will take us all the way back  through Confluence\, Connellsville\, and McKeesport back to the finish in Homestead. \nRoute Notes\n\n\n\n\nCheatsheet\n\n\n\nMile\nStop\nAddress\n\n\n50\n2-Sheetz/td>\n610 US-22 W Blairsville\n\n\n86\n3-Dunkin/td>\n542 S Center St Ebensburg\n\n\n12\n4-Fishertown Country Store/td>\n2095 Quaker Valley Rd Fishertown\n\n\n150\n[last store for 60] Valero/td>\n410 Broadway Berlin\n\n\n181\n5-Mitch’s (closes at 7)/td>\n479 Latrobe Ave\n\n\n209\n6-Sheetz/td>\n1002 W Crawford Connellsville\n\n\n261\n7-Hampton Inn/td>\n301 W Waterfront Dr Homestead\n\n\n\nAt mile 42\, the route follows a causeway across the Conemaugh River. If the water levels are too high\, the causeway may be impassable; in which case\, an on-road route from mile 39.5 to mile 46.1 is as follows: Leave westbound trail\, L on Auen Rd for 1 mile to R on Quick Rd for 1/2 mile to R at T on Clarksburg Rd for 3 miles to R at T on Newport Rd to rejoin route at mile 46.1 \nAt mile 150\, there lies a 24-hour Valero convenience store. That is the last 24-hour store on route until the Sheetz in Connellsville at mile 210\, so stocking up here is encouraged. \nAt mile 181.5\, the controle is at Mitch’s Fuel and Food in Confluence\, PA. Mitch’s closes at 7\, as do the majority of the other businesses in Confluence. If the store is closed\, feel free to take a selfie if needed for proof of passage. \nAt mile 192\, you’ll be passing through Ohiopyle. Historically\, the park rangers have discouraged through travel after dark\, so I’d suggest avoiding them if possible. \nAt mile 210\, you’ll controle at the Sheetz in Connellsville. This is the last obvious opportunity for resupply until the finish 50 miles later. \nRegistration closes: Wednesday June 14th 2023 \nInspection opens: Sunday June 18th 3:30 AM \nRequirements: current RUSA membership\, signed waiver\, headlight/taillight/reflective gear \nRide start: Sunday June 18th 4:00 AM (27:00 time limit) \nRoute:\n
