THE RIDE Our bicycle rides are a great way to explore Western Pennsylvania and beyond. The rides are hosted by Leo McCarthy, Army veteran and retired Moon Township police chief. Leo works hard to plan our rides, peppering them with an ounce of fun and a dash of history. The rides are social in nature and limited to a small group of 15 riders. We take our time and enjoy the camaraderie. Most rides are between 15 and 20 miles. Join us in September on a journey that visits several highly historic Pittsburgh Civil War sites. We will visit the location of the Allegheny Arsenal where 9/17/1862 three buildings exploded killing 78 staff, mostly young women and girls. We will continue our travels to the Allegheny Cemetery and visit their mass grave. We will visit the military cemetery as well and the grave of General Alexander Hayes. We will stand where General Ulysses Grant cried while visiting the grave of his West Point best friend. And then we will visit the grave of Pittsburgh’s Steven Foster, America’s first great composer. We will also visit the Temple of Memories Mausoleum.  Our ride will be primarily on city trails, but some will be on city alleys with little or no traffic. Some of the hills in the cemetery will be challenging but you are welcome to walk them. Interested riders are welcome to join us for lunch afterward, at their own expense. Meet up details will be provided the day before the ride. YOUR GUIDE Your guide for this excursion is Leo McCarthy.

In fact, it has nothing to do with the church, or can only say that his appearance is like an old European cathedral, here is a teaching building, but very grand and beautiful, the interior can be seen.
