Wow, looks like several folks planning on attending. My wife and I both plan to attend and will be bringing or bikes. Is this the best place to stay tuned for organized rides? Sounds like there are also rides posted on the event website.

We are definitely up for a Riv ride and any other rides! He weren't planning on being there this year but we are going to make it.!
I am so excited to do some rides with you all! I arrive Friday afternoon and depart Monday. It would be awesome to do a Riv Ride of some sort. Seems like quite a few of us will be in attendance!
I wound up signing up for the PA Randonneurs International Women's Day 107K Populaire that is also on Saturday March 8th (Which is being organized by notable Philadelphian and Hunqapillar owner, Ello) so I promise that no one will get dropped on the night ride this time around other than me.
The populaire is open to all RUSA members and it starts near and ends at Bike Expo for anyone interested in joining from out of town.

Hi Drew,
I'm also in Atlanta; I just priced Amtrak and see that a seat in coach isn't too expensive--I didn't include a bike--but the cost of small cabin is high; nearly $500 each way. I really enjoyed going to PBE last year but would want my own bike this time instead of an Indego. The Rivendell guys are bringing their own, I believe, rather than display bikes to sell (too bad!)
Around here, being recently arrived and living near Grant Park, I usually ride part of the Silver Comet, and also out by the monastery and around Stone Mountain. A couple of days ago I rode Dirty Sheets with a friend; still muddy after last week's snow and all.

Thinking about taking Amtrak up from Atlanta so I can bring my Appa, but worst case I'll fly up and use an Indego bike. Unless another list member has a loaner I can borrow for the weekend.
Looking forward to meeting any/all of you going though!
Tim's ride to Keystone after the Hot Dog ride was a blast and certainly a highlight of the weekend. A great route on quiet roads with Steven C., Cameron, Tim and Dan S. Even tho Dan S. and I got dropped for a bit and lost in the woods!

Amtrak is having a sale on some of the routes. I think NYC-PHL was on the list. You can take a bike but need a reservation. Ck details. Look for the bike sticker on the train to tell you which ones have the racks. The bike reservation is an extra cost.

for those in NYC considering this for a day trip, I just checked Amtrak tickets today, and you can do a roundtrip for less than $30. I did not investigate bring your bike options.
@rmrose - single track can DEFINITELY be at night if you'd like . Belmont at night is so special, we have fires under one of the bridges in the winter.
![]() This (ride) sounds so good. Might the singletrack be at night?
Welcome to town all be it a bit early. I’ll be doing unofficial rides Friday night, Saturday afternoon, and for Sunday morning I am one of the organizers of Coffee Outside Philly and that’s our weekly which tends to turn into a bit of thing during expo.
Last year I lead a pretty fun ride for a few folks from the group and others that left the expo, made it’s way to some of our single track, and gravel loops, hit a nice historic bridge or 2 and then cut back across town to keystone. I’ll put in a bit more planning this year and try to share some routes.
Anyway,
Tim in Philly @cleanupyouract @coffeeoutsidephl

The Good Tom! I sure hope we can meet again!
River - there will be rides posted on the event website. Pam often leads a ride to the Keystone After Party and sometimes one on Sunday. There was a coffee ride last year I really enjoyed. L Last year was my first time going, and I really enjoyed it. The Rivenfolk are great, of course, and I got to meet Leah and Pam, as well as builders such as Jeffrey Bock and Brian Chapman. The morning and evening rides are an added bonus; I also volunteered, which I will happily do again. That said, I'm not so sure I can get there this year, given a tight schedule in March, but I highly recommend PBE and taking part in every element of it. The vibe at PBE is excellent. Be sure to bring a bike! Good time to buy a show bike from Rivendell, too.

The 2025 Philadelphia Bike Expo is on March 8 and 9, and Rivendell is going to be there. I went last year for a few hours (on my way back home from a family visit in MD) and enjoyed it a lot. Fun to meet some of the Rivendell staff in person, and lots of other interesting things to look at and enjoy.
I'm thinking about going again this year - -but for a bit longer in order to be able to really enjoy it.
Anyone else considering going?
