Cycling gives you a thrill that makes it more likely that you'll maintain cycling. During #BikeMonth, we are highlighting ways to get cyclists on the road safely and more often. Join us 5/24 for BWGI's group ride and 5/27 for the Gullah/Geechee BRAG Dream Team community ride.

We have some young safety experts in the making! BWGI joined with @GASafeRoutes for #healthykidsday at @YMCAofCoastalGA , complete with a “crosswalk” with "traffic" for kids to show how to be safe when on the go.

Watching the teen cyclists of the Gullah/Geechee BRAG Dream Team safely lead riders around @citybwkga may be the best part of our month. And stopping for funnel cakes at Coastfest was an added bonus! Join the ride next month! @BRAGeorgia #safestreetsforall

The Gullah Geechee Bicycle Ride Across Georgia Dream Team reminds us why we advocate for safe routes in @GlynnCountyGA and @citybwkga. Each month young cyclists lead a free community ride -- let's keep them rolling and leading the way! Join them next month! #iridebesidemaud

We will be pushing for cyclist and pedestrian access on Sea Island Road! Join us at the workshop today, then send your comments to officials, reminding planners that people who ride bicycles, walk, run, and roll need to be considered in all road improvements!
Reminder - we would love to see you! Brunswick Area Transportation Study (BATS) will be holding a public meeting/workshop concerning the ongoing Sea Island Road Corridor Study on March 8 beginning at 4pm until 6pm at Epworth. The public is invited to attend. 👍👍👍

Not sure if we've ever been this excited about going to school!
Georgia Walk & Roll to School Day is officially March 8 (or any date in March that works for schools and communities). Walk & Roll to School events can be walking/rolling to school, at school, from school, or from a park & walk site. lnkd.in/ezw6w476

This young man traveled from Maine-Florida on @ECGreenway on a *unicycle*! Unfortunately, he had to skip parts of Georgia and SC because the route was too dangerous. Avery, know that we are striving to make your next ECG trip safer and more assessable for all! @GlynnCountyGA
2,400 miles. 15 states. One wheel. This is unicyclist Avery Seuter's story. 🎥 Full short film: youtu.be/f01bp4PtGT8

BWGI joined @forwardbrunswick Tuesday afternoon in hosting @Greenway_Brent and @ECGreenway to walk the ECG route in Brunswick and discuss future plans to benefit @citybwkga! The East Coast Greenway runs from Maine to Florida, right through the heart of @GlynnCountyGA

Although Bike Walk Golden Isles was not mentioned specifically, we thank The Brunswick News for mentioning our request for a master trail plan for @GlynnCountyGA. We won't stop pushing until a trail plan is funded, developed and fully adopted! #bikewalk #SafetyFirst
The Glynn County Commission explained plans for a five-year update to the comprehensive plan during a public hearing at Tuesday’s special-called meeting. thebrunswicknews.com/news/lo…

"When neighborhoods become safer, more accessible, and more liveable, property values rise. Pedestrianizing a street can make home values go up $82 a square foot." This and more reasons to lace up our shoes @GlynnCountyGA :
