BikeAthens

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.
