The rule

Bicycles are prohibited on all Interstate highways in Georgia (I-16, I-20, I-24, I-59, I-75, I-85, I-95, I-185, I-285, I-475, I-516, I-575, I-675, I-985) under O.C.G.A. § 40-6-50 and GDOT signage.

What this means in practice
Stick to surface streets, US routes, state highways, and dedicated paths. If your route in Georgia appears to use an Interstate, plan a detour before you start.
