A perennial festival favorite, Mash 2 Brash is a regular Wednesday morning ride originally started by Toecutters. It starts at Grant Park and cruises up through Northwest Atlanta and stops at Brash Coffee at Westside Provisions District on Howell Mill for coffee and biscuits!. This no drop ride is at a moderate pace normally averaging about 13-14mph and includes some fun but steep hills where riders will normally race though sprinting them is optional! We will mass up after each hill and after coffee and biscuits a group will ride back to Grant Park where the start point is.
You will have the opportunity to purchase an egg/cheese biscuit, egg/cheese/bacon biscuit from Maple Street Biscuit Company for $6.50, cash, Paypal, and Venmo accepted. (We will call out for orders towards the end of the ride) There are also pastries available at Brash and Donuts within walking distance at Five Daughters
