MOULTRIE — Last Saturday, the Moultrie-Colquitt County Parks and Recreation authority hosted their inaugural Bike Rodeo, which took place at Goff Complex.

The Colquitt County Cycling Club (C4) partnered with MCCPRA to make this event possible.

“We had about 30 attendees,” said Maggie Davidson, the Executive Director at the MCCPRA. “I think it went really well. I was impressed with the educational information provided by our partners.”

During the event, Georgia Safe Routes and Georgia Bikes provided bike safety and education while Trek-Tallahassee supplied bike maintenance.
