  • Trip Is Full of First-Time Adventures for the Pittsburgh Nine
    CITY KIDS TACKLE A “BIG RIDE” by Susan Weaver Trip is full of first-time adventures for the Pittsburgh Nine hances are Anthony Pipkin was the only assistant principal in the Ccountry last year to put a station- ary bike in his office and have students pedal it while he did paperwork and took phone calls. These kids from a Pittsburgh public school called Helen S. Faison Arts Academy weren’t in trouble. They had been chosen to participate in the Greenway Sojourn, a mass ride that would take 500 cyclists from 34 states off-road from Washinton, DC, to Pittsburgh. The eight-day ride would enter the city near their school. So the tour’s organizers, Rails-to-Trails Conservancy (RTC), had offered to host 10 students, ages 10 and 11, and their mentors on the Sojourn’s second half. The Faison group would camp out with the other riders and cycle about 100 miles on the Great Allegheny Passage — a rail-trail that runs from Cumberland, Maryland, to the Steel City. The invitation came late in the school year. By the time Pipkin — or Mr. P., as the kids call him — had selected 10 fifth- graders from among 60 eager volunteers and gotten parents’ permission, it was May. The Sojourn was at the end of June, and the kids had to be ready to pedal 30 miles a day — more than any of them had ever ridden before. Some worried they might not make it. “It’s gonna be hard,” Johnny Spell said of the challenge. Some didn’t even have working bicycles.
