Save the date for the annual Georgia Bike-Walk-Live Summit! 🚴🏼‍♀️🚶🏻‍♀️👨🏽‍🦼‍➡️

Join us in Athens, GA, September 10-11th, as we highlight and improve on what makes Georgia bikeable, walkable, and livable, from complete streets to trails and greenways.

We're excited that the GA Outdoor Rec & Trail Summit and an in-person meeting of the state Vulnerable Road User Task Team will once again be part of the mix for the third year running.

The request for session proposals is open now through Monday, June 22nd. Visit the link in our bio for the submission form or go to http://tiny.cc/GGSummitProposals

Go Georgia will lead and facilitate targeted sessions and mobile workshops on Thursday, 9/10, in and around downtown Athens. All other sessions and mobile workshops proposed through the RFP form will be held on day two (Friday, 9/11) at the beautiful Georgia Museum of Art. Registration/hotel block info and sponsorship details will be available on our website soon.

The summit is offered in partnership with the Georgia Department of Transportation.

Join us tonight for the May Joy Ride.

What to Expect
Joy Rides are casual, 6 to 8 mile rides that last about 90 minutes.

We recommend that you bring water, a helmet, and bike lights. It is also nice to have a spare inner tube that fits your bike.

We abide by all applicable traffic laws and re-group at safe stops as needed during the ride. We leave nobody behind. All rides include a ride leader who regulates pace and a sweeper to handle mechanical problems if they arise.
