Southern Velo again hosted the Dalton Grand Prix race weekend, serving as the Georgia State Championship event for the Road Race and Time Trial this year.
Big shoutout to Jonathan Sierra for masterminding the event, and to Topview Sports for promoting and organizing the racing. The race also serves as a fundraiser for the United Way of Northwest Georgia, generating over $100,000 for the community since we started the event a few years back.
