Everything You Need to Know About PedalPGH 2019

Let’s get you and your bike ready for Pedal Pittsburgh

As a fundraiser, UPMC Health Plan PedalPGH enables BikePGH to continue to transform our streets and communities into vibrant, healthy places by making them safe and accessible for everyone to bike and walk.

We are so excited you decided to join us on August 25th, 2019. If you haven’t registered yet…it’s not too late!

We flew through early and regular registrations! And we’re on pace for late registrations to sell out quickly, so sign up today if you want to tour Pittsburgh by bike at the 26th Annual UPMC Health Plan PedalPGH! Click here to secure your spot.

This is our handy guide on how to give your bike a quick safety check, and what keep in mind while riding on Sunday (or any day for that matter).


Guarantee a Good Start

One way to guarantee that you’ll be off to a good start on the morning of PedalPGH is to have a tuned-up bike that’s ready to roll. Visit your local bike shop to get a full tune-up to be sure your bike is in working order.

Have you checked your bike since your last ride? When was the last time you had it in the shop? Regular bicycle maintenance can prevent accidents. Here is the “ABC Quick Check,” which you should do every time before you ride.
