Give your city cycling confidence a boost with this instructional group ride. This in-person class is designed in conjunction with the Community Farmers Market. 

If you're interested in this ride, but you feel unsure about participating due to hesitations about riding on city streets, please take a moment to fill out this survey so that we can work to create an experience that is accessible for all. 

What to expect

We will gather for a few quick drills then hit the city streets for a 45-minute ride of three to four gentle miles, then practice connecting bike trips to MARTA! Once rolling, we’ll

• Take it slow, stay together, and practice our skills in a safe and supportive manner
• Experience Atlanta’s existing bicycle facilities, like two-directional protected and/or single-directional bike lanes and sharrows, and
• Learn to ride safely on streets without bike lanes by exercising our legal right to “take the lane.”

How to prepare

Please bring a helmet and ensure that your tires are inflated to the recommended psi. We strongly recommend that you also bring:

• Water and sunscreen
• Backpack, panniers, or container to carry groceries. Other bike hardware container options would be a front basket, a rear rack with a milk crate, etc. We highly recommend considering your carrying capacity before writing your grocery list.
• Sneakers or other appropriate closed-toed shoes
• Comfortable, appropriate clothing for being outside and active
• A friend or three!

Please arrive promptly so all participants can benefit from the full time allotted for this instructional experience.
