The noble sentiment, Never Give Up, here realized by Living Walls muralist Eme, gains a poignant dimension this damp morning of Streets Alive. While Cyclofemme riders enjoyed clear skies last Sunday for their tour East Atlanta and Kirkwood, Peachtree Street is ours today, rain or shine. See you there!
The fun resumes Sunday at 2pm, when three miles of Peachtree Street from MLK Drive to 17th Street become a pedestrian paradise until 6pm. New for this event will be a service of the upcoming Atlanta Cycling Festival, It's a bike wash, YEAH! Like her shiny spokes and forks? You, too, can have such a clean machine. Just bring your ride to Villains Wicked Heroes, 903 Peachtree Street. Your donation will support a week-long celebration of all things bicycle June 7-14. Atlanta Cycling Festival
The Atlanta Bicycle Coalition and CycloFemme honor Mother's Day with an expression of world wide cycling solidarity. All are welcome Sunday at 3pm, when our riders gather at the ABC office, 692 Kirkwood Ave SE in Cabbagetown. Roll-off is 3:30 for a leisurely city tour to conclude at Sister Louisa's Church of the Living Room and Ping Pong Emporium where DJ Vicki will be spinning the dance tunes. rsvp
Cyclofemme is a nationwide celebration of women cyclists on Sunday, May 13. With the BeltLine ride having taken their usual first Saturday, Heels On Wheels riders invite you to a special edition of their monthly jaunt up Peachtree Street. Meet them in Woodruff Park at 6pm.

When I see an adult on a bicycle, I do not despair for the future of the human race.

The bicycle is the most civilized conveyance known to man. Other forms of transport grow daily more nightmarish. Only the bicycle remains pure in heart.
