Gambler
About the event:
You don't have to be fast. You just can't fold.
Ready to take a gamble? Join hundreds of other cyclists for a 50 or 100 kilometer ride through northeast Georgia's rolling countryside past Beaver Dam Farm (built by Kenny Rogers hence the name Gambler).
Get a playing card when you start, three along the way, at three checkpoints that have water, snacks, and other refreshments - and a final card will be given at the end of the ride to complete the hand. Cyclists with the best hands win prizes!
Hundreds of cyclists participated in 2008, competing for various prizes, including a new bicycle. The ride is followed by shop mechanics to insure a fun and safe time for everyone.
T-shirts, prizes, post event food, access to the athletes lounge, and more are all benefits of riding this year's Gambler. Join your friends or intimidate other riders with a poker face and a good time.
Entry forms can be dropped off at Georgia Cyclesport - 1029 Baxter Avenue - Athens - or register online or by mail. Check back for information about prizes and awards location
