Giving Back to the Cycling Community

Fellow Virginia-Highland Velo cyclist Rich Chey is a local business owner who understands the value of giving back to the community. His collection of local restaurants, from raising money for the local fire station, through collecting waste water during our drought, demonstrate his sensitivity to being a good neighbor.

It's no surprise that Rich's HomeGrown Restaurants are giving back to the community again by presenting, along with Atlanta Cycling, the acclaimed film "Road to Roubaix" on April 30 in Atlanta. A portion of the proceeds will benefit two of Atlanta's strongest organizations working to improve the conditions for cyclists in Atlanta: the PATH Foundation and the Atlanta Bicycle Coalition.

From the flyer:

HomeGrown Restaurants and Atlanta Cycling are proud to present the Atlanta premier of ROAD TO ROUBAIX on Thursday, April 30 at 7:30pm at the Landmark Theater in Midtown. The film chronicles the Paris-Roubaix race, one of the most historically relevant bicycle races in the world. Race footage, rare behind-the-scenes footage and interviews with current superstars and legends of the sport like Lance Armstrong, Fabian Cancellara, Tom Boonen, Sean Kelly and Stuart O’Grady give the viewer a rare look at Paris-Roubaix usually reserved for cycling insiders.

After the film, there will be an informal Q&A session with the film’s directors at Stella Restaurant located at 563 Memorial Drive.

The theatre seats 300 viewers and we wanted to give members of the Atlanta cycling community the first opportunity to buy tickets before they are available to the public. If you have a large group attending the film, let us know and we will reserve a section for you. We will reserve up to 150 seats for groups on a first come first serve basis. Tickets are $10 and a portion of ticket proceeds will be donated to the Path Foundation and Atlanta Bicycle Coalition.
