Georgia Rides To The Capitol 2007 was a fantastic event and it could not have happened without the kind and generous support of our many sponsors. We would especially like to thank the following: MS 150 Atlanta Challenge; they provided free lunch for 1400 riders. Hope Beckham did a magnificent job with our public relations, site design and print materials. ChoicePoint and Decatur First Bank generously provided the financial support without which the event would never have happened. The Metro Atlanta Mayor’s Association and the Georgia Municipal Association for their wonderful support and assistance in making the 2007 event the success it was. And to the cities of Roswell, Decatur, Marietta, and Atlanta for serving as the 2007 event cities and graciously providing the route assistance and planning that made last year’s event safe and enjoyable for everyone. We thank all our wonderful supporters for 2007. Join us for another great event in 2008!
