Bicycle Ride Across Georgia

What was just a "spontaneous pivot" became a great adventure and launched what would become a remarkable family tradition. 25 BRAG rides later --spanning 12 Big BRAGs, 8 Spring TuneUps, multiple Fall rides, and a Winter Ride-- the Solomans have made BRAG a big part of their story!

Fake Moustaches, Family Adventure, and 25 BRAG Rides: The Solomon Story - BRAG - Bicycle Ride Across Georgia When Steve and Susan Solomon's eldest daughter couldn't make a planned family backpacking trip in 2013, some biking friends offered a suggestion: try BRAG instead. That spontaneous pivot became a "great adventure" and launched what would become a remarkable family tradition with over 25 BRAG rides
