City Staff Community Bike Ride - Tuesday May 19th 8-9:30 am - Greensboro City Hall

As part of National Bike Month, everyone is invited to join us for a community bike ride with City of Greensboro staff, particularly from the transportation department - at least 15 city staff have already agreed to participate including the GDOT director - and all the advocacy organizations will be there too.

The event is on Tuesday morning starting at 8 am from the front of Melvin Municipal Office Building (Greensboro City Hall), 300 W. Washington St, 27401. Our route, https://ridewithgps.com/routes/55107117, is 4.2 miles long and highlights several city improvements as well as certain controversial intersections and network gaps. The pace is expected to be around 7-9 mph with frequent stops (particularly on hills).

If you've ever wanted to meet the people who design and implement city bike facilities as well as city roadways, this ride is a rare opportunity to interact with the city staff who do it all, including the engineers.

Helmets are required. We will be riding on city streets. A police escort is not expected.
