A square that you won't fine anywhere else. We'll leave it at that. Join this fun and educational bike to to find out why... :-)

Jody is an excellent bike tour guide with the advantage of being a Pittsburgh native familiar with her city who also is an experienced cyclist. We learned a lot about several of the older inner city neighborhoods and also experienced the river trails . She provided an inside view of Pittsburgh and its scenic spots. Highly recommend this tour.

Great tour! I went solo and was grouped with 6 other people, some who were also solo. I thought 3 hours would drag but it actually went fast. There was beautiful weather which made this extra enjoyable. So many people warned me, Pittsburgh is a hilly city, why are you doing a bike tour?! The company and the reviews don't lie- the route is flat and easy! There was one small section of switchback inclines to get up to a bridge, that was the hardest part and still no big deal. You can expect stop and go riding, so it's just a little bit at a time. The guide Doug was very knowledgeable and he admits he likes to talk too much. I'd prefer a little less talking and more riding but I still very much enjoyed the tour. The bikes are prepped with a water bottle holder and small leather pouch for personal items. Bikes were comfortable and in good condition. Got a cute little Heinz pickle pin for a souvenir.
