How to Bike PorchFest 2022
At BikeAthens, we can’t think of a better way to celebrate the end of summer than with a bike ride through some of Athens’ historic neighborhoods to catch some shows during this year’s PorchFest (Sunday, October 2nd). This annual outdoor event, organized by Historic Athens, is a massive community-wide concert with over 155 events on 150+ porches in some of Athens’ oldest neighborhoods: Boulevard, Buena Vista, Cobbham, Newtown, Normaltown, and Pulaski Heights.
This event is a rare, bikable opportunity in our car-centric state, so we challenge you to break out the bike and join us. Below is a calendar of free events to support folks of all experience levels get ready to bike PorchFest 2022!
