2011 Ride
CONGRATULATIONS to the 15 cyclists who joined us for the Pedaling For Kids ride across the state this year! The cyclists had another year of perfect weather, serious biking and great fun. The 248-mile trip was accomplished in only two days by the following riders: Dr. Gabe Denes, Kenny Hall, Mickey Richardson, Joey Mayhand, Bill Haynes, Al Picken, Charles Wright, Charles Lott, Dr. Hugh Ogletree, Jeremy Wadkins, Kyle Bolen, Randy Brown, Raymond Tuggle, Stephen Nolan, and Steve Denham.
The peloton completed the first half of the trip and stayed in Dublin, Georgia at the Holiday Inn Express and Suites. Our special thanks to the folks at the Holiday Inn Express for the great hospitality and accomodations. The second day carried the group into Savannah and they celebrated their accomplishment at the Hyatt Regency Savannah. Thank you Kim Callaway at the Hyatt for making sure everything was perfect. It was a very challenging two-day ride and everyone had a great weekend. The route was safe and the food, drink, comraderie, and accomadations has everyone already looking forward to this year’s trek.
A special thanks to our SAGS on the trip: Kay Denes, Sandy Cox, and Jeff Mayhand and thanks to The Bike Shop and Chuck McManus for the loan of shop trailer again for the second year.
