The ride will start at 7:30 a.m. at Falcons Landing between the Georgia Dome and Phillips Arena on Andrew Young International Boulevard. Dimitroff will lead the route along with members of the Falcons front office and local cyclists.
The 12-mile route will feature several iconic Atlanta landmarks, including Centennial Olympic Park, Turner Field, Grant Park, the Krog Street Tunnel, and Piedmont Park.
National Bike to Work Day was originated by the League of American Bicyclists in 1956 and is a part of National Bike Month, which is held every May.
Since coming to Atlanta, Dimitroff has been committed to making the city a better place to ride. He recently completed the final leg of the 2016 Ride on Atlanta, covering nearly 90 miles from Athens to downtown in an effort to raise funds and awareness for safer cycling.
Dimitroff has participated in Bike to Work Day each year since 2012.
