It's Back! Open Streets Macon returns Sunday, October 1st from 2 pm to 6 pm! The streets of Macon will spring to life as a 1.5-mile stretch of street from the Washington Memorial Library to A. L. Miller Village is opened to people on foot and bike, and closed to motorized traffic (except for intersections where cars will be free to cross.) Organized by Bike Walk Macon, this is the city's largest FREE recreation program, unlike any other in Macon-Bibb County. Open Streets are programs where the streets are temporarily closed to cars. People traffic replaces car traffic, and the streets become "paved parks" where people of all ages, abilities, and social, economic, and ethnic backgrounds can come out and improve their health.

The Beall's Hill Bike Tour will be an easy ride through the Beall's Hill neighborhood with plenty of stops.

The biking will be mid-level and slowed paced, plus we'll be sure to schedule plenty of stops for tour highlights. All participants must sign a waiver or have a parent or guardian sign a waiver and wear a helmet to participate in the ride. Bike Walk Macon will provide safety information before the ride begins. Please note this ride will take place on open roadways. The tour is open to the public.

Take a Kid Mountain Biking day is a national event geared towards getting kids active, engaged, and dirty on the trails. We are proud to host our own event for the kids of middle Georgia at L.H. Thomson Co., one of our three local mountain biking trails. Kids can participate in a short trail ride lead by our seasoned OMBA members, or compete in the "Fastest Wheels" race for a chance to win a prize! Toddlers can also get in on the action at our "Little Trikes" obstacle course. Don't have a bike? Don't worry, we'll have a small selection of bikes at our free rental station. Sampling pool will be limited though, so we encourage you to bring a bike if you have one. Come make memories with us, and enjoy a day at your local trails! HELMETS ARE REQUIRED!
