As a child, I enjoyed bicycling very much. I rediscovered my love of biking in the summer of 2025.
πΊοΈ Trails
The trails I bike most frequently:
- Great Allegheny Passage | r/gaptrail
- π Itβs every bit as beautiful as the photos illustrate. I highly recommend cycling the GAP in the autumn if you can!
- Montour Trail
- Panhandle Trail

I put photos of my bikes online at pics.brie.lol.

- I was noting each bike ride. I started biking a bit too much for that to be reasonable. I am aiming to rely more on the commentary that I add to Strava to make this more sustainable.
- OnTheGo Map β a great tool for route-planning.
