Quick look at the week ahead: Tomorrow night, we will be presenting our monthly class How to Bike, Athens via Zoom. We will cover the basics of making sure your bike is in good condition, go over the laws regarding bike riding, give tips on how to ride safely, how to keep your bike from being stolen, and answer any other bike riding questions you may have. Email shop@bikeathens.org for the link. FREE! Thursday is our regular weekly Fix Your Own Bike session 6pm-8:30pm. Friday, the May edition of our monthly Joy Ride rolls out from our shop at 6pm. Our Joy Rides are casual group rides around Athens (usually 7-10 total miles) that provide a fun and safe atmosphere for all skill levels. See y'all Friday! We'd like to shout out to @SorbaAthens for hosting a mountain bike group ride at Walker Park on Saturday at 2pm. Bring your mountain bike, water and a helmet. https://www.facebook.com/events/400919681931074
