The woman at the counter suggested we go left on the trail, that way we enjoy the tunnel plus the coast downhill on the return trip. It was a great tip, and I believe I rode an entire mile coming back without using the pedals. There's a repair shop there, as well as a wonderful place to buy ice cream and BBQ. The trail itself is quite scenic, and there's a mix of runners, bikers and walkers. It's an enjoyable outing. If you are tall like me, they may not have a good fit for your rental. The attitude is "one size fits all, we can adjust the seat.". That works to an extent, but I would have enjoyed a larger frame.

My wife rented one of their e-bikes which was a great equalizer for riding together. Everyone was happy!

We began the planning process a year in advance of our ride and Dana led us through every step of the way. Everything went without a hitch: shuttling us from Cumberland to Pittsburgh, securing great accommodations for our large group, and transporting our luggage from point to point. Dana even arranged perfect autumn weather for us; the only rain we experienced was during our tour of Fallingwater. The service provided by Dana, the rest of the GTB team and their partner businesses along the GAP was well worth every penny we spent. Highly recommended!

Visit Aspinwall Riverfront Park and you'll find a great spot to rent a kayak! This rental booth is…read moreoperated by Kayak Pittsburgh, a specific project that's part of the Venture Outdoors nonprofit group. Aspinwall is their 3rd Kayak Pittsburgh location in the area (with other locations on the North Shore and in North Park). With plenty of free parking available at this little park, you normally just have to show up and pay for your kayak. (Note that during 2020, an online reservation is required due to the popularity of their kayaks and because they need to control the number of people in the area at a time.) You'll be provided with a life vest and paddle after checking in. The staff will also answer your questions and provide tips on kayaking if you need them. They'll then help you get your boat into the water, where you can paddle at your own pace and enjoy the scenery. I do want to mention that because this is a river location, you'll want to keep the strength of the current and any wind in mind as you paddle along the Allegheny. You may find yourself working harder in one direction or another depending on what the current and wind does during your visit. So give yourself plenty of time to get back to the launch point, and be careful about overexerting yourself early on. Other tips from this regular kayaker are: bring PLENTY of water; don't forget your sunscreen and a hat; bring a waterproof bag for your valuables; and consider investing in some sports gloves so that your hands don't get too sore or blistered paddling. Do those things, and you're sure to have a blast during your time on the water!

Which I thought was dumb. A tire is a tire. So I drove half an hour to West Newton Bikes. The bike tech, Jerico, could not have been nicer or more efficient. He fixed the flat, remounted the tire, fixed some other little issues I had and I was back on the trail in less than an hour. All for a lot less money than I would have paid at the other place. It's a bit of a drive, but I'll be using them for all my biking needs from here on out.

The space is scenic with a view of the water, and it's cozy as well with couches, chairs, and picnic tables. During cooler temps, firepits are an option.

Situated on what was once a country club (in the seventies) and an 18 hole golf course, the landscape is now dotted with decidedly unspectacular houses arranged in non-varying offsets from the street. On the plus side there are sidewalks on both sides of the street, pretty center island landscaping and a pool. Mom has a view of the remaining nine hole golf course across the street. The school district is one of the best in the country for public shools (North Allegheny) and it's in the Franklin Park Borough which means decent police patrols and a good resale value. Good neighborhood for families with young children who need a yard big enough for a Costco sized kids yard activity set (swing/fort/slide/climbing wall). Buy a house here, get the kiddo's on the bus and enjoy suburban bliss.
