The Trail Angel Project
๐ฒ The Trail Angel Project
Fueling Adventure. Brewing Community. One Trail at a Time.
Welcome to the Trail Angel Project โ a grassroots, bike-powered movement bringing coffee, kindness, and support to the trail.
From the back of a long-range cargo eBike, weโre building a mobile coffee and trail support station for Pittsburghโs world-class greenways โ including the Montour Trail, Panhandle Trail, and the legendary Great Allegheny Passage.
Think:
โ Fresh coffee
๐ง Cold water & sports drinks
๐ซ Trail snacks
๐ ๏ธ Emergency gear (tubes, pump, first aid)
๐ Encouragement when itโs needed most
๐ก Why It Matters
If you've ever bonked on a long ride, flatted miles from the trailhead, or just needed a friendly face mid-journey โ you already know the value of a Trail Angel.
Weโre building something more than just a mobile coffee stop.
This is a rolling act of service, a community-builder, and a storytelling vehicle for SmokeyMcPickle.com.
And we need your help to make it happen.
๐ฏ What We Need
Our biggest hurdle right now? Acquiring the cargo eBike that will become the Trail Angel platform.
Weโve launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise $5,000 for:
-
A long-range, dual-battery cargo eBike
-
Coffee gear, storage systems, cooler, and repair tools
-
Branding, signage, and early trail inventory
