Come join us at BRAG's Georgia BikeFest 2016!

BRAG's Georgia BikeFest is a weekend long event with lots of activiities after the rides.

Camping at the park along the Chattahoochee and hot shower trailers are included Thurs - Sat nights. Local motels and hotels will be offering special rates. There will be live music nightly, lots of restaurants, and various entertainment all weekend long. Whitewater rafting excursions are available at the White Water Center which is located right across the street from the camping/park. WE WILL CAMP AS A GROUP AND WILL HAVE A DESIGNATED AOC AREA MARKED OFF FOR US.

There will be multiple mileage options to choose from daily. You can ride as much or as little as you like. Click this link to check out the route options. http://www.brag.org/#!gbf-routes/c12rb The terrain is mild to moderate and very scenic. This is a show and go ride, all participants start at their own leisure, and you are welcome to ride any course you would like. We can ride as group or you can ride on your own. We will discuss this in camp once everyone arrives. You can sign up for the whole BikeFest or just the one day ride!
