This foundation, in partnership with the Atlanta Bicycle Coalition as their Cobb Bicycle User Group (BUG), was established to leverage their network and organization into a local advocacy effort in Cobb County. As we continue to increase membership, we will be asking people to step forward and participate. We're brainstorming, developing our agenda and setting the stage for the next steps.

Ride of Silence
WEDNESDAY, MAY 20th “Ride Of Silence” (7pm) Cyclists around the world will participate in a unique ride to honor those who have been injured or killed while cycling on public roadways. The rides worldwide begin at precisely 7:00 pm. It is a short ride (about 10-12 miles) at a slow pace (12mph) -- all done in complete silence. Typically, riders wear an armband -- black on those riding in memory of someone killed; or red on those riding to honor someone who has been struck and survived, or if they have been struck themselves before.
