Itinerary:
Make history at the our first-ever after work cycling event! OK, it is not really that exciting and maybe not even the first but it could get you out of a late afternoon conference call.

The Alpharetta Greenway is a 6.2 mile trail through beautiful woods. It is mostly paved with some boardwalk. Hopefully we can beat the crowds and set our own pace, but if not we will have to obey the 12MPH speed limit. We will ride out and back twice for a total distance of about 25 miles. We may have limited daylight, so try to be on time. We will gear up, do introductions, and sign waivers, then hopefully be rolling by 6:00.

NOTE: You MUST be able to perform your own bike maintenance should you have any mechanical issues.
