YMCA Events Across the Greater Pittsburgh Area
Pedal for Peace is a week-long YMCA Spinning event where members recruit sponsors for their participation in Spinning classes.  The mileage covered in these Spinning classes is meant to mirror the globe-crossing journey our Moderate Voices for Progress participants are taking to be a part of this YMCA effort.  The event is being held at 8 YMCA of Greater Pittsburgh locations: Allegheny YMCA, Baierl Family YMCA, Downtown YMCA, East Suburban Family YMCA, Penn Hills YMCA, Western Area YMCA, Wilmerding YMCA and the YMCA at U.S. Steel Tower.
