Summer Bike Ride: Three Rivers Heritage Trail
Hosted by Friends of the Riverfront Trail Development Team
Join our Trail Development Team this summer for a casual bike ride along the scenic Three Rivers Heritage Trail! Whether you’re a beginner looking to build confidence or a seasoned cyclist wanting a relaxed cruise, this ride is perfect for all skill levels.
We will ride at a casual pace from Millvale Riverfront Park to the Eliza Furnace Trailhead and back (approximately 16 miles round trip). Folks/families seeking a shorter option are welcome to join us for the first leg to Point State Park (approx. 8 miles round trip) and head back to Millvale at their own pace.
A No-Drop Ride: This is a “no-drop” ride, meaning no one will be left behind. We will have a designated ride leader at the front and a “caboose” at the back to ensure the entire group stays together, comfortable, and safe.
