Josh, A riding group in Pittsburgh, although yet to declare a start to the usual Tuesday rides beginning in April. They've met at the coffee shop on N. Highland Ave. in Highland Park. All sorts and levels of riders. Neither a lycra drop ride, nor a tweed, sandal and sock ride either. All of the above. The group's been around so long that it's not absurd to be called out by bystanders far from the start point as we ride through neighborhoods.
Links to maps of many of the routes in and around town there, length varies based on available light from April to end of September. I've enjoyed participating in the rides since moving here in 2000 and have been on all of the mapped routes. team-de...@googlegroups.com Andy Cheatham Pittsburgh On Tuesday, March 16, 2021 at 2:38:54 PM UTC-4 joshuamarx wrote: > Thanks for the welcomes! > Roberta: bite-sized GAP rides sound like a good idea.
