Book Description
Just a few short hours north of Atlanta, the Georgia mountains offer the best of all possible worlds for road bikers. A mild climate and nearly year-round cycling season, rolling blue ridges, tiny mountain towns and famous apple orchards all add up to a great cycling destination. From the historic Chickamauga Battlefield to the Brasstown Scenic Highway, from Helen to Ellijay to Rome, author Jim Parham lays out rides for all ability levels. Twenty-five of the region's best bike routes, ranging from 9 to 62 miles in length, are listed in this guide. Each route description includes complete directions, detailed map, elevation profile, road surface conditions, mileage and estimated riding times, points of interest and services available along the way.

Bike Lanes Are White Lanes
Author: Melody L Hoffmann
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 0803276788
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
The number of bicyclists is increasing in the United States, especially among the working class and people of color. In contrast to the demographics of bicyclists in the United States, advocacy for bicycling has focused mainly on the interests of white upwardly mobile bicyclists, leading to neighborhood conflicts and accusations of racist planning. In Bike Lanes Are White Lanes, scholar Melody L. Hoffmann argues that the bicycle has varied cultural meaning as a “rolling signifier.” That is, the bicycle’s meaning changes in different spaces, with different people, and in different cultures. The rolling signification of the bicycle contributes to building community, influences gentrifying urban planning, and upholds systemic race and class barriers. In this study of three prominent U.S. cities—Milwaukee, Portland, and Minneapolis—Hoffmann examines how the burgeoning popularity of urban bicycling is trailed by systemic issues of racism, classism, and displacement. From a pro-cycling perspective, Bike Lanes Are White Lanes highlights many problematic aspects of urban bicycling culture and its advocacy as well as positive examples of people trying earnestly to bring their community together through bicycling.
