My Bike Trip - Biking Around Pittsburgh

Here is a picture if the Morning Glory Inn...


Today I did some sightseeing around Pittsburgh.  I rented a bike for the day from Golden Triangle, and they took care of some things in preparation for the trip.

There are a lot of trails around Pittsburgh. I rode one around Pt. State Park where the three rivers here come together; down the North Shore to Sharpsburg; and back and down the South Shore along the start of the GAP trail for a while. Along the way I saw the Pirates and the Steeler stadiums.







I also saw a family of geese going along the trail, and lots of other birds.



There were a lot of trains going along the rivers and across bridges.  It really is great here in Pittsburgh - Roads and train tracks stacked on top of each other up the steep hills, with neat old homes and other structures going up and down the hillsides, and bridges and old industrial brick buildings everywhere.

Here is a view of downtown Pittsburgh from the Fort Pitt bridge...



Hrre is the big clock I see from the window in my room, during the day, and lit up at night...
