Gravel Riding

Gravel riding, or mixed-surface riding, is one of the fastest-growing forms of cycling. PEC sees this as an opportunity to invest in Pennsylvania’s trails and public lands and increase opportunities for communities and individuals to engage with the outdoors. 

We’re working to facilitate the conversation around the role that gravel riding plays in the outdoor recreation economy and land stewardship, and conduct research on gravel riding trends in Pennsylvania and beyond. Each year since 2019, PEC has hosted the Public Lands Ride, a non-competitive gravel ride at Black Moshannon State Park.
