One belts, Two Flats



Well, there’s a price for everything I guess.  Suffering through two flat tires on Sunday was certainly a good price to pay for knowledge provided.

A lot of the information these days about the beltline – Atlanta’s – can be found on their website; but, honestly, it wasn’t until taking a few hours by bicycle to ride around it that I realize how amazing the final project will be.

For anyone curious about the route, the current development and future plans, I would recommend spending some time looking over the Beltline’s website.  If live OTP, and are in need of something a little more “in person”, t I’d suggest taking a trip down North Ave (@ or near the Masquerade); the scale of the project there is very much on par with the rest of the route.

For a more intimate feel of the route, the Beltline Partnership conducts a bus tour.  And, coming up on April 25, Atlanta Bicycle Coalition will be conducting a bicycle tour.  Bring your bike, ride the belt.

Thanks Kyle, Ali, and ABC for organizing the ride; and Angel for the tube and for being a wealth of information.  Such a good day.

Cheers,
