Thunderstorms were not enough to stop the almost 200 motorcyclists who, two weekends ago, joined to give rides to 28 ‘stars' and their families at the 34th annual Atlanta Ride for Kids. The motorcyclists, riding to benefit the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation, or PBTF, came through Dawsonville shortly after 11 a.m. on June 4 and circled around the historic courthouse. The ride began and ended at the Cumming Fairgrounds.
