Restore 22 Veterans Bicycle Ride - Tour De 'Burgh

FOR EVERYONE'S COMFORT AND SAFETY, THIS RIDE WAS CHANGED FROM APRIL 25 TO MAY 23 DUE TO THE ACTIVITIES SURROUNDING THE NFL DRAFT.

THE RIDE

Our bicycle rides are a great way to explore Western Pennsylvania and beyond. Our guid 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. If you don't have a bike, we may be able to help you. Email [email protected] for information.

Join us for a relaxed 13.5-mile ride through downtown Pittsburgh focused on connection, not competition. Whether you're a veteran or riding alongside one, this is about building friendships, sharing stories, and enjoying the journey together. No timers, no pressure. Just good people, fresh air, and meaningful miles.

THIS RIDE ONLY: Join us afterwards for a FREE LUNCH at Big Jim's in the Run.

Meet up details will be emailed the day prior to the ride. DO NOT GO TO THE ADDRESS LISTED HERE.
