Celebrating our BRAG Dream Team Partnership

Building upon a long-standing partnership with the East Coast Greenway Alliance, the BRAG Dream Team celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2024 with its longest ride to date - from Florida to Maine on the East Coast Greenway! 

About the East Coast Greenway Youth Bike Tour

Beginning Monday, June 17, in Miami Beach, Florida, a group of 15 BRAG Dream Team alumni youth cyclists and experienced adult coaches, led by Alliance Vice Chair Atiba Mbiwan, rode north for five weeks, finishing in Bangor, Maine. Along the way, at least 25 BRAG Dream Team alumni and coaches joined the East Coast Greenway Youth Bike Tour for various segments.

About the BRAG Dream Team

Created in 1994 by the Bicycle Ride Across Georgia (BRAG) to offer Atlanta Public School students the opportunity to get fit by cycling across the state, the BRAG Dream Team aims "to provide extraordinary cycling experiences for youth to dream beyond their circumstances and grow greater by the mile."
