LowCarbon Crossings

After riding 3764 miles across the United States, Mindy Ahler and Ryan Hall, known as the “LowCarbon Crossing Team”, will arrive in Pittsburgh on Sunday, November 6, 2016, as part of a bicycle journey to engage with communities along a 14-state route.  Through conversations on climate change, the Team aims to heighten the American public's understanding of climate issues and to inspire action towards climate solutions.  

The Team is expected to arrive at Bicycle Heaven, 1800 Preble & Columbus Ave. on the North Side, for a media stop at 1:30 pm and a Solidarity Ride at 2:30 pm.  After the ride, a presentation is scheduled for 6:30 - 8:30 pm at St. Andrews Church, 5801 Hampton in Highland Park.  The team will leave for Washington, D.C. on Monday at 9:00 am from 412 South 27th St in the South Side Works (the location of REI Pittsburgh) and would love an enthusiastic biker send-off!
