Itinerary:

Grab your bikes and join us for some FREE fun on the beautiful back roads around Cartersville.   We’ll be cycling a 31 mile loop beginning at the Budweiser Plant near Cartersville, Georgia.  Following country lanes along pastures and farms, over the river and through the woods, biking the back roads is a great way to spend a Sunday morning on a bicycle.

This is not a beginner ride - You need to be comfortable climbing hills and riding 31 miles in under 2.5 hours.  You need to be comfotable on two-lane country roads with some vehicle traffic.  Plan on riding single file to allow vehicles to pass.

FAIR WEATHER ONLY!  We'll cancel if rain is forecast.

A road bike is recommended.  Helmets are required.  Light colored/reflective clothing and a working rear-facing light recommended.

Meeting Spot:  Enter Budweiser parking lot, turn right to find us.
