The PA Environmental Council and DCNR are hosting the 2019 PA Mountain Bike Summit on May 10 at the Raystown Lake Visitors Center in Huntingdon County from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Mountain bike advocates, land managers and anyone interested in improving off-riding will be gathering for a discussion around what it will take to improve and expand riding opportunities throughout Pennsylvania.

Different perspectives on how to achieve this will be given time and there will be an opportunity to be heard.

The outcome of the meeting will help lay the groundwork for DCNR's 5-year plan to improve off-road riding in the state.

For those interested, free camping for the weekend is being made available as part of the celebration of the 10-year anniversary of the Allegrippis Trails.
