May is National Bike Month (http://www.bikeleague.org/programs/bikemonth/). May 14-18 is National Bike to Work Week. May 18 is National Bike to Work Day. So who's riding to work this week?

I've been asked to *lead* the Decatur to downtown Atlanta "Bike Train" (now that sounds scary :eek: ), so who's riding with me so I don't get lost? :o

The Atlanta Bicycle Campaign (ABC) is leading at least two "Bike Trains" this year. Click here (http://www.atlantabike.org/Bike_Mo_BikeTrains07.htm) for more info. If you want to lead or start one in your part of town, contact Dennis (atlantabike@mindspring.com) at ABC.

I'm thinking about biking all the way out to work on the 18th instead of MARTA + bike. It's almost 20 miles each way on really bad roads, so I might not...any suggestions for downtown to Amwiler Rd. at Peachtree Industrial?

And I thought the route from home (N. Druid Hills/Lawrenceville Hwy) to my old job (Peachtree Ind/Medlock Bridge Rd) was bad. :o

Your route looks like one hellava ride. If it was me I'd stick with the Marta+bike plan.

That's great! I guess I'll see both of you Friday morning.
