    Since Joe and friends are such bike enthusiasts, maybe they can help with this ride to benefit animal rescue:

    It's tomorrow - sorry for the late notice, but it's never too late to give to a good cause.

    Please post if you want to sponsor someone, and i'll give you contact information.

    Thank you!

    Many thanks to Dunwoody Police for offering a patrol car to escort and all the volunteers acting as “shepherds”, as well as Barb Schlefman, Catherine Lautenbacher and Sue Weinshenker for helping to organize and get the word out. Most importantly, there were no injuries and Bruster’s didn’t run out of ice cream.
