Support Local Community Bike Shop

A couple of community bike shops are going on some long rides to raise money. Do you want to sponsor them and help raise funds?


Check here for The Beltline Bike Shop and here for the South Atlanta Bike Shop.

The Beltline Bike Shop says:
2011 Fundraising Bike ride
I wanted to let everyone know that your very own Beltline Bike Shop is having a fundraising ride on the Silver Comet trail November 5th. We will be riding 50 miles in an effort to raise money for our 2012 operating budget. The Beltline Bike Shop takes in donated bikes and then invite kids to earn a bike of their own through community service in the neighborhood. The shop, open three days week , is then available to them to keep their bikes up and running.
I will be doing the ride and others are welcome to join in. I think we now have 7 riders. We have a fundraising goal of raising 100+ dollars each for the ride. If you are interested in joining in, volunteering that morning of or making a donation that would go toward our ride let me know and I will send you an invitation to the event. If you would like to make a donation towards the ride please click the link provided. DONATE

Cycle of Love 2011 – Team South Atlanta Bike Shop

October 23, 2011

Last year Evan and I joined Cycle of Love to ride from Birmingham, AL to Atlanta, GA (160+ miles) to raise funds for the bike shop.
For Cycle of Love 2011 (Nov 5-6) our bike shop team has five teens plus two volunteers and me embarking on this life-changing journey. We are asking for donations for our youth development program at $1/mile (or more if you’d like). You can sponsor as many miles as you would like!
Our first pledge came from GA state representative Margaret Kaiser for $1/mile for the entire trip. Please join Mrs. Kaiser in supporting the at-risk youth of South Atlanta by supporting the work we do!
