. TRAS has an assortment of adaptive cycles including hand cycles and recumbent (foot pedaled) trikes available to accommodate a variety of riders. Each cyclist will have volunteer support and will be able to ride at their own pace. TRAS will be partnering with the Pittsburgh Steelwheelers and HOPE Network for a ride on the “Jail Trail” along Second Avenue in Pittsburgh on May 21st. TRAS will also team up with Hanger O&P for a cycling event at the Bud Harris Cycling Oval on Washington Boulevard in East Liberty on June 11th. Other TRAS Cycling Program events listed below, will begin at the Southside Riverfront Pak on South 18th Street off of East Carson Street on Pittsburgh’s Southside. The rides will run along the Three Rivers Heritage Trail. Ride distance will depend on the interest and ability level of each cyclist.
