Outfitter of the Week: Golden Triangle Bicycle

Team Crash cannot always be self-sustaining; the Captain and his faithful sidekicks often rely on businesses and various outfitters to obtain gear, services, expertise, and even food. Once a week-- usually on Wednesdays-- Crash or another member of the team will give a shout-out to an outfitter of some sort who has helped us out in the past and deserves a little free advertising here. Help support them because if they're on here, you know they're top-notch!


Everyone loves being in Pittsburgh. And bike riding is pretty cool. So shouldn't riding a bike in Pittsburgh add up to something pretty fucking sweet? That question was rhetorical, but the answer anyway is "yes!" The Steel City has embraced its beautiful location with many opportunities to enjoy the outdoors right in the heart of its urban sprawl, placing biking trails right along the shores of those three mighty rivers that call Pittsburgh home. If you wanna take advantage of this sweet combination to peddle through the golden triangle, then Golden Triangle Bicycle has ya covered. Operating in the downtown grid off of First Avenue, this bike outfitter can rent bikes of sorts to give you a pretty damn effective mode of urban transportation that will give you one of the most unique vantage points of the greatest city on earth. You can hop the trail right from the outfitter and utilize the network of bike paths to make your way to the Point, Southside, Northside, Strip District, Washingtons Landing, or hell hit up the Allegheny Passage and make your way to DC. So get off your ass and go ride some bikes... get all the info you need at http://bikepittsburgh.com/

Tally-ho!

Welcome!

This blog focuses on the travels of Captain Crash, a Pittsburgh native and outdoor guide with a knack for adventure. With a few sidekicks and two great Jeeps, Crash finds incredibly unique and scenic areas throughout Western Pa, WV, NY, OH, MD, and beyond. The adventures are typically off the beaten path to places almost completely unheard of today and often involve camping, offroading, ATVing, paddling, biking, hiking, backpacking, climbing, urban exploring, rappelling, cliff jumping, ghost hunting, urban legends and more.
