Thousands to Gather for Seventh Annual Evening Bike Ride to Benefit Local Nonprofit, Bert's Big Adventure

On Friday, June 7, Atlanta Moon Ride presented by CapTech invites the city to gear up for a cause and hit the streets for an electrifying evening.

The first night-cycling event of its kind to be introduced to the city will include a fun, 7-mile bike ride through some of Atlanta's coolest neighborhoods. Featuring after-dark antics, participants are encouraged to ride with flair - dressing in costumes, decorative helmets and glow sticks - anything goes!

The seventh annual nighttime cruise will start and end at Piedmont Park, taking participants on a scenic and traffic-free route through some of Atlanta’s favorite neighborhoods by moonlight. Tickets include an official Atlanta Moon Ride t-shirt, entry to the festival pre-party and the 7-mile bike ride. Early bird tickets are now on sale for $30.
