Lou Fineberg – Program Manager

Lou returned home to Pittsburgh in 1996 after a stint as a Peace Corps volunteer in Guatemala. For the next six years he rode his bike throughout Pittsburgh barely ever going beyond the city’s limits. His riding adventures resulted in the 2002 release of Three Rivers on Two Wheels: An Explorer’s Guide to Urban Pittsburgh. That same year he joined local fellow cyclists in helping to start BikePGH. He can be reached via e-mail at lou@bike-pgh.org
