to Connellsville
We had ridden on part of the Great Allegheny Passage on Friday into Pittsburgh and on the Three Rivers Heritage Trail. Today we reversed those 13 miles to McKeesport and then continued on the GAP. Most of it was paved to and past McKeesport but that ended. It is a very good unpaved trail. Well maintained by volunteers.
The GAP is well known among cyclists and is very popular. Many cyclists and pedestrians were on it especially as it was Sunday. Its reputation is well earned; a great ride along the Monongahela to McKeesport and along the Youghiogheny after. Rhymes with hockey gamey.
100 km
Today's ride: 63 miles (101 km)
Total: 1,526 miles (2,456 km)
