Pittsburgh is PA’s second largest metro area and offers many opportunities for exploration, on and off the bike. It is home to the Steelers, Penguins, and Pirates, and a number of professional championships. Pittsburgh is also known for the unique intersection of three rivers: Monongahela, Allegheny, and Ohio.
For a little two-wheeled fun, take a spin on the Three Rivers Heritage Trail and explore The Bicycle Museum of America. Allegheny Co. Parks offer hundreds of miles of riverfront paths and trails for hiking and biking. If adrenaline is more your thing, head to Full Throttle Adrenaline Park.
The communities surrounding Boyce Park, such as Monroeville and Murrysville, offer many different options for places to eat and drink.
