This is our big end-of-year celebration, inclusive of women, trans and non-binary people & genderqueer folks!
Here’s who this event is for:
BikePGH’s Women & Non-Binary program and this event are inclusive of women, trans and non-binary people, genderqueer, agender, and gender variant folks, as well as those whose gender identity falls outside of the dominant conceptions of gender.
This event is also for ALL skill levels; checkpoints vary from easy to hard. New to riding? No problem! Super experienced? You’ll have fun, too!
Here’s what to expect:
The WMNBikePGH Scavenger Hunt Ride is a choose your own adventure style ride. You decide how much you want to ride and how many checkpoints you want to hit. This isn’t a race! Have fun and ride at their own pace.
12:30 pm – Meet at Spirit (Lawrenceville). Bring your bike or rent one at the nearby POGOH station (52nd & Butler)
1:00 pm – Ride manifest & clues will be released to riders, in person at Spirit.
4:00 pm – Riders must return to Spirit by 4 pm. Then, the after party!
Plan Your Adventure – Ride Hard or Take it Easy
BikePGH will have copies of the Official Pittsburgh Bike Map on hand for Scavenger Hunt participants to use to plan their route. Most, if not all, checkpoints are accessible via on-street infrastructure like bike lanes, trails, or neighborhood ways.
No matter your experience level or knowledge of bike routes in Pittsburgh, there will be something for everyone at this event. Check point locations range from easy to hard – you can choose to take it easy and skip hills, or ride harder, going for longer mileage and some climbing. It’s up to you what you want your ride to be!
Gather your crew & start hitting checkpoints
Registered riders will receive their ride manifest and checkpoint clues at 1 pm. The clues on the ride manifest will help you decode the map provided.
Checkpoints will open at 1:15 pm and stay open until 4 pm. Volunteers will be waiting for riders at the secret checkpoint locations to stamp their ride manifest.
After the ride party at Spirit in Lawrenceville
Riders will need to return to Spirit by 4pm to turn in their ride manifests. The more checkpoints you make it to during the event, the more raffle tickets you’ll receive.
We’re gathering tons of great raffle prizes from local and national businesses. While everyone won’t receive a prize during the raffle drawing, there will be other fun activities for us at Spirit!
We’re working to bring more offerings to the afterparty so there’s something for everyone:
-A DIY spoke card station
-Button making
-Bandana printing with our friends from Pittsburgh Babes on Bikes
-Temporary tattoos
-A photobooth
-FREE pizza & drinks (n/a and alcoholic options available)
We can’t wait to see folks on Saturday, November 8th, 2025!
Happening rain, snow, or shine. Lightning / thunder / blizzard or other extreme weather will result in the ride being canceled.
