Description: Our friends at BikePGH will be hosting their final Operation Illumination event of the year on October 30th. Operation Illumination is BikePGH’s initiative to install front and rear bicycle light sets for riders with unlit bikes through giveaways at pop-up events throughout the year! 

To help celebrate the last Operation Illumination event of 2024, GIVE UP will be hosting a fun group bike ride starting at the fountain at Point State Park up to the event at the Carnegie Library Woods Run location.  Anybody joining our ride who needs lights of their own can pickup some lights when we stop in through their event.  After we stop and get lights, we will take a casual bike ride up through Riverview Park and around the Allegheny Observatory, where we will stop for a water / candy break.

Costumes and spooky bike decorations are highly encouraged.  GIVE UP will bring spooky music for the ride, along with candy to give out to riders at our stops along the way.  Anything you can do to keep the spooky halloween vibe going is welcome and appreciated.

Don't forget to bring a helmet and water along to this ride!  (Bring lights if you have them, and if you don't have lights, we'll get you some from BikePGH!)
