The Georgia Natural Gas Beat the Heat Ride

Road Race

The Georgia Natural Gas Beat The Heat Ride supports bringing back the Tour de Georgia and, most importantly, statewide childhood obesity prevention initiatives. The Georgia Natural Gas Beat the Heat Ride is a 100K challenge ride that starts at Falling Waters in Ellijay and finishes at the top of Brasstown Bald. Notable PRO riders (the Heat) will participate in the ride and set the climb time to beat. All participants will receive a time for completing the ride plus a time and ranking for the climb up Brasstown Bald, an elevation of 1,458 meters. After the Georgia Natural Gas Beat The Heat Ride, together with professional cyclists, riders will enjoy the "Bring Back the Race Hors Categorie Party".
