Park your bike in the first bike valet in PNC Park’s history

By Jane Kaminski

I can’t tell you how excited I am to watch the Federal Street Bike Valet fill up at PNC Park on Tuesday, September 15th when BikePGH and all of our friends–that includes you!–head to the ballgame. Biking to Pirates games is one of my favorite summertime activities. I bike down on the streets to enjoy the energy of everyone headed to the game, and ride home along the trails as a relaxing way to end the evening.

Get your tickets today and use the code “BIKE” for Bike Night – Pirates vs. Cubs on Tuesday, September 15th at 7:05pm. Every person who purchases a ticket will be able to join us and the Pirates for a pre-game Business Happy Hour Meetup. The Pirates are buying the first round starting at 5:30, then all food and beverage is half price until first pitch (scheduled for 7:05).

Pirates CubsThe Pirates have gotten on board as some tremendous BikePGH supporters; helping with our Positive Spin Youth Empowerment Program and working on expanding bike parking options for attendees of 2016’s games. Also, a portion of the ticket sales will be donated to BikePGH.

Parking your bike at this bike valet on September 15th could help determine the future of bike parking amenities at our stadium games in Pittsburgh. Come to the game with me, the BikePGH staff, and all of your bikey friends!

Here are some of my biking-to-baseball highlights from this year and years past:
