Decatur and Georgia Rides to the Capitol on March 22

Georgia Rides to the Capitol March 22

The sixth annual “Georgia Rides to the Capitol” will be March 22. The event, co-sponsored by the Metro Atlanta Mayors Association (MAMA), is designed to raise support for the development of a regional-scale bicycle network of both on-road facilities and multi-use trails, and cycling connections near major transit facilities, activity centers and schools. The bike ride is free and open to the community but participants should preregister at www.Georgia-RidesToTheCapitol.org.

The Decatur leg of the ride leaves from the north parking lot of the East Lake MARTA station, 2260 College Ave., at 10:45 a.m. and arrives at the Capitol at approximately 11:40 a.m. The ride from Decatur is five miles one way, with some hills, and will proceed at a slow pace.
