Let’s Fill These Gaps!

By Linus Pietrusza, Bridge of Pittsburgh Intern

BIKEFEST is an annual celebration hosted by BikePGH that is made up of many events created by community members. It lasts 10 days and goes from the 19th to the 28th of August. Event can be simple and short or very complex and long. BikeFest is all about having fun and making the world a more bike-friendly place. Kicking off with the BikeFest dance party and closing down with a big bike ride, UPMC Health Plan PedalPGH, we want to make it as happy as possible and you can be a part of that.

Let’s Fill These Gaps! We have 2 days with no events. Anyone can host an event wether you are 2 or 102 years old. Events can be any thing, any where, and anyone can be involved in BikeFest. Last year we had over 60 events From downhill mountain biking to public art bike tours.

BikeFest is family friendly. Some rides are age restricted, but most are based on skill level of the rider. If you want to submit an event, we are especially encouraging you to submit rides on Monday the 21st and Thursday the 25th. Click here to fill out the submission form.
