Atlanta Area Routes?

Have you tried the Roswell Sunday Winter Ride? It's on Thursday nights and I heard it's pretty good. Here's the URL bikeroswell.combikeroswell.comOpen ↗

Also, you can check out Southern Bicycle League at bikesbl.orgbikesbl.orgOpen ↗ and there's also the Silver Comet Rail-Trail at www.trailexpress.com

Looks good, thanks for the resource. I think i'm gonna head over to Marietta square and do a modified version of the "Coffee & Bagel Ride" found on ATLbike.org ( posted a similar thread on the regional board and got a helpful response as well.

Don't forget Kennesaw Mountain. 1.5 miles of going up fun.

well, yeah i think that'll unfortunately be right toward the end of the ride... I used to run cross country there, so I can't imagine its much more difficult.

Just got back from my ride around Marietta/West Cobb and I gotta recommend the route to anyone willing to venture out this way. I took a modified, 20+ mile loop, but the route (which i will link below) in full is over 50 miles. Its a really nice ride, with a mix of up and downhills and stays away from a lot of traffic (which is very difficult around here) save for the few mile stretch on Barrett Pkwy. Anyway, a link to the map which was posted on www.atlbike.org is below:

Thanks for the help finding this route, and maybe i'll see some of y'all on the road.

Bruce, you are welcome to join us on a group ride in Cartersville.

We have been riding (on occasional Saturdays) with a group starting at the brewery and riding the back roads near Cartersville.
