Mayor's Ride
May 1
Cyclists of all ages prepare for start
Over 350 cyclists pedaled through beautiful Roswell, GA on 5, 21 & 41 mile rides

"A great ride that was beautifully orchestrated by Bike Roswell, with big-time thanks to Frank Eastland, President, as well as Mayor Wood. Frank gave special time and attention to the NBG throughout the event, right down to the celebrity lap! Usual incredible scenery. More proof that we are America's #1 bike city!"
Fred Fox, Cross Country Cyclist

Thanks for giving us the opportunity to assist you  in NBG's 2005 National Mayors Ride  and then acknowledging us so graciously. It was a pleasure working with (the NBG) and my hat is off to you for the excellent work you do for the benefit of cycling. Next year hopefully we will have more time to properly publicize your event in and around Roswell, GA. Please be sure to include Roswell in your route and Bike Roswell! in your plans for next year.
