Exploring Georgia by Bike

Whether you’re a hard-core bicyclist or a novice, you’ll enjoy Jim Qualls’ bicycle explorations of Georgia. Look for them in Brown’s Guide Blogs in the “Bicycle Trails” category.

A realtor by profession, Jim has been touring Georgia by bicycle ever since hebiking-jq-klein-rgb.jpg was a boy growing up on the last farm standing in rapidly developing Roswell, Georgia. He and his wife Janna, along with daughters Ellen (19) and Betsy (15), now live in Peachtree City in a house with a two-and-a-half car garage. A Honda occupies one side of the garage, the obligatory Peachtree City golf cart the one-half. The rest of the space is taken up by five bikes and a mint condition 1963 red Massey-Ferguson MF35 tractor from his father’s Roswell farm.

Jim’s trails will be divided between road tours through Georgia’s rural and urban landscape and trail bike routes that get you off the pavement and onto some of the backcountry trails from the mountains to the coast.

Try some of Jim’s trails and send him your comments. Let us know if you have a favorite bike trail that you’d like to see posted on the website to share with others.
