City Cycling - Georgia Tech Community Class

Get comfortable traveling by bike with this instructional group ride! This in-person class is offered by Parking and Transportation Services in collaboration with Propel ATL and is designed specifically for members of the Georgia Tech community — that includes students, staff, and faculty!

What to expect

We will gather BEHIND the Campus Recreation Center on Tech Parkway. Here, we will perform a few quick drills then hit the city or campus streets for a 45-minute ride of three to four gentle miles. 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 a bicycle in good repair that fits you. We strongly recommend that you also bring:

• Water and sunscreen
• 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. In case of rain, this class will be rescheduled.

These free classes are provided with the support of the Georgia Governor's Office of Highway Safety.
