The Metro Atlanta Mayors Association and event sponsors will host more than 1,000 cyclists from metro Atlanta for the sixth annual "Georgia Rides to the Capitol" event Tuesday. Police-escorted rides will depart from Decatur and Roswell in the morning, led by Decatur Mayor Bill Floyd and Roswell Mayor Jere Wood.
The event is held to raise support for improved conditions for cycling, including the development of regional systems of both on-road bicycling facilities and multi-use-trails. The event is free, but participants should preregister at www.GeorgiaRidesToTheCapitol.org.
Estimated departure times from originating cities are: Decatur at 10:45 a.m. and Roswell at 9:45 a.m.
