Economic impact! This is what the GC brings to a community. Here's what one business owner said ...... Rebecca Clanton, owner of Sweet Magnolia's on Main Street, said she served nearly 1,000 customers Sunday, including cyclists and volunteers. "We opened especially for the Georgia Cup. We've probably served 500 sandwiches or more and 20 gallons of ice cream," Clanton said. "It's been a madhouse all day." Thank you to our sponsors and volunteers! On Saturday we had 15 Sheriff officers and over 20 volunteers for one of the most exciting Road Races in GC history!
We are very excited about the support our Paton's have shown early on this year! Keep in mind Saturday it rained (sometimes poured) all day and we still had over 400 participants! WOW!
Special thanks to our officials - if it was not for them there would be no reason to promote races. Thank you so much!
Watch for videos and pictures from this epic weekend to be posted this week - http://www.georgiacup.com/.
THE GC will be announcing 4 of our 7 Tour of Atlanta stages THIS week! We are still looking for that elusive TITLE sponsor of the ToA. If you can help refer someone we we would really appreciate it. Please contact James Lowe at james@georgiacup.com.
