Ga Dual Sport Riders was created to be your center for organized dual sport and adventure rides in Georgia.
There are no dues, no memberships and no sanction fees for promoters of various rides types.
We promote the use of quiet street legal dirt / adventure bikes. We encourage you keep the sound down. and get your bike tagged, insured and if necessary, in some states, inspected. We also encourage you to carry enough medical insurance at all times.
Furthermore, when riding any events, we want all riders to make a positive impact on us as Dual Sport riders. Remember, when riding any event, the first impression is a lasting impression and we want that impression to be a positive one and above all have fun.
