The Alabama Trail Organization alongside the Rails to Trails Conservancy is hosting an event in Piedmont dubbed ‘Celebrate Trails Day’. The annual event is part of a broader push by the Alabama Trail Organization, along with the Rails to Trails Conservancy and other Alabama outdoors organizations, to encourage citizens nationwide to get outside and enjoy trails and trail systems.

The event will include 2 group bike rides led by the Northeast Alabama Bicycle Association on the Chief Ladiga Trail. One ride will run from Mike Tucker Park in Weaver to Piedmont, an 18.5 mile ride, the second ride, a shorter one at 12 miles, will run from the Jacksonville Train Depot to Piedmont. There will be hydration stations and information at the two starting points. Food trucks and live music will be located at Pinhoti Pizza Company in Piedmont from 11am to 7pm (or until food is sold out)
