Atlanta cyclists wrote ‘Outkast’ in city streets with GPS

If you look hard enough with your spirit, you can see that every surface in the city already bears the group’s name anyway, but one pack of athletes decided to make it more prominent.

This weekend, Outkast, the greatest musical group to ever exist on this or any other planet, is playing prrrobably its last-ever hometown shows. Atlantans are pretty excited about it.

Says the bike company on the Strava-tracked ride in the area near Turner Field and the Atlanta University Center:

In honor of Outkast’s ATLast show in Atlanta, We at The Spindle brought together 40 local cyclists on June 6, 2014, for a one-of-a-kind ride. Using a phone app that traced their route onto a map, we wrote the name of the ATLiens using our bikes and the streets of Atlanta. This was our ‘Ride Bikes Get Weird’ Ride we did in July! Was a blast confusing so many cyclists but the surprises on their faces was worth it once they found out what transpired!!
