The Montour Trail is a multi-use trail, eventually connecting the Pittsburgh airport to the Great Allegheny Passage Trail. On this ride, with my cycling buddy, Jim, we started at the Ohio River in Coraopolis and rode 22 miles to the small town of Venice. The start was packed with all sorts of folks out enjoying the trail but as we moved on, the crowd thinned and we were alone for much of the ride. The highlights of this section is the McDonald Trestle and the Enlow Tunnel. I look forward to continueing on this trail someday.
