how about a swimsuit ride, 6/11?
Kinda late to set up a WNBR for Pittsburgh, but since much of the rest of the world is doing WNBR (NSFW) that day, I figure the closest we can get on short notice is SWIMSUITS!
We did this a couple of times last year, and they were great fun! I checked the calendar, and aside from the MS150 Escape to the Lake ride and the Travelers Aid Transit Treasure Hunt, no rides are scheduled. Those are sure to take a few people out of contention, but not all, so how about it?!
Just for starters, let's say 12:30 p.m., at ... Dippy? Friendship Park? I'm open to suggestions!

I know nothing about the city south of the Mon. Streets, pools, whatever. Maybe we can focus on them this time, wherever they are? Just a suggestion.
Hey, it's only May at this writing. We have plenty of time to hit all the pools!

Nooooo, not the 11th! I can't come that day! Actually there are a whole bunch of weekends this summer I couldn't come, so don't mind me.

There's a pool on the South Side just over the Birmingham Bridge. It's tucked in behind the library. I've never been there.
Most years the city pools open the day after the city schools let out. This year that's June 16.

i am going to run a pool ride again this summer during bikefest. just so you know!

So how about June 18th?
Bikefest is later in the summer, right? The more pool rides the better! (Someday I'll just do a triathlon.)

Dormont and Mt Lebanon pools are open... probably a bit far for non southerners.
