Macon Bike Party Kicks Off Fall Series with Summer Send-Off Social Ride on September 12th
Wednesday, August 28th, 2024
Get ready to roll through Macon's streets with the return of Macon Bike Party! This free, community-focused bike ride series, hosted by Bike Walk Macon, takes place every second Thursday from September to December and March to June. The rides offer a fun and welcoming way for people of all ages and skill levels to explore the city from a unique perspective.
Join us for the Summer Send-Off Social on Thursday, September 12th! As we wave goodbye to summer and welcome the cooler days ahead, riders are encouraged to wear their favorite Hawaiian shirts for a festive farewell to the heat. This ride will be led by our first official ride Party Marshal, Erin Keller, who will keep the energy high. This slow roll will start at the Bike Walk Macon office at 830 High Street, with registration beginning at 6:00 PM. We'll set off at 6:15 PM for a leisurely tour through downtown Macon, concluding the ride at our new official after-party spot, The Rose Room.
