The Good, the Bad, and the ones you just want to forget

Our Messageboard grew in popularity by leaps and bounds this year.  Here is a list of the 25 most popular BikePGH Messageboard threads of 2009, ranked from most views to least views.  This list acts as a snapshot of some of the highlights and many of the lowlights of cycling in Pittsburgh in 2009.  Although some of these I wish didn’t happen, especially the first one, it’s important to not forget about Ruihui Lin and his family either.   And who can forget the G20, the Great Casino Caper, or Bumper Bike’s new found fame?

Thanks everyone for reading and posting!  This messageboard has exceeded our expectations as a Pittsburgh cycling resource and community builder.

Keep riding and keep posting!
