The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive early to fit your bike
Get to Green Fleet Bike Shop 10 minutes before departure to adjust seat height and test the e-assist so the ride starts comfortable.
Hydrate and carry small cash
Complimentary bottled water is provided, but carry a refillable bottle and a few dollars for vendor snacks or a pit-stop drink.
Watch traffic at busy intersections
The route uses protected lanes and low-traffic streets, but stay alert through downtown stretches and follow your guide’s directions.
Dress for short weather swings
Bring a light packable jacket—city shade and river breezes can feel cool even on warm days.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Nashville Farmer’s Market stalls—great for a quick pastry or local spice to take home

Conservation Note
Urban cycling reduces car trips and emissions; respect neighborhoods by staying on designated lanes and avoiding loud music while riding.
Jefferson Street played a key role in Nashville’s Black music scene and civil-rights history; downtown venues like the Ryman and the Country Music Hall of Fame trace Nashville’s rise as a recording and performance center.
