She joined me to talk about how outdoor recreaton shaped her life, and what we are doing right, as a region, from the perspective of the next generation.

Rich and Ryan from LHORBA joined me in the studio to talk about cycling in the Laurel Highlands! LHORBA is the region's premier cycling group. They are an all-volunteer, non-profit organization devoted to the promotion of the sport of bicycling. We view the sport as a vehicle to promote low-impact outdoor recreation and conservation. We promote bicycling opportunities that are environmentally and socially responsible, while providing economic benefits for businesses in Southwestern Pennsylvania.https://lhorba.org/
