The Atlanta Bicycle Coalition needs volunteers to ride all the bike lanes in Atlanta Saturday afternoon and document them.

The city of Atlanta asked the advocacy group for help confirming the existence and condition of its roughly 30 bike lane segments and of its "sharrows," paint marks reminding drivers that cyclists will be in the lane.

Meet at 2 p.m. at the coalition offices, 213 Mitchell St. Information: www.atlantabike.org, 404-881-1112.
