After months of negative media attention on the GDOT Peachtree Road project that would add a combine two lanes to make a center turn lane and add bike lanes with the remaining space, both sides of the issue were represented at last night's heavily attended GDOT Peachtree Road meeting at the Shepherd Center.

The City of Atlanta has hired its new Chief Bicycle Officer, and if you’re active in the Atlanta bicycle community, you may already know her.

We at the Atlanta Bicycle Coalition love and support local businesses. And many of these local businesses love us back.

You may have heard about our brand-new Business and Bikes event on Friday, August 14th, where we'll collectively support restaurants and shops along Peachtree Street between 8th and 10th streets.

Atlanta Streets Alive is a very big part of what we do.

The Atlanta Bicycle Coalition staff traveled to Washington D.C. for the Women's Forum and National Bike Summit hosted by the League of American Bicyclists last week.

We had the chance to collaborate with bike advocates from across the nation; learn from experts on topics such as equity, retrofitting suburban streets, and women's leadership; and lobby our senators and representatives for important issues, such as Vision Zero.

Check out our selection of tweets from attendees of the summit. Search #womenbike and #nbs15 for more tweets about the Women's Forum and the National Bike Summit.  

This week the City of Atlanta and Mayor Kasim Reed announced the launch of Atlanta Bike Share in 2015.
