        Lindsey Boyes of Heidelberg and Donna Adams of KSU.

        Lindsey was awarded the Bike Champion SpotLight Award for the 3rd quarter of 2007 for reporting more than 80 bike trips over a 90-day period.

        Congratulations to you both and thank you for your commitment to our programs, logging your commute, and clean commuting.

        Vanpools Forming

        Tired of gas prices, commute times and traffic? Try vanpooling.

        A vanpool seat partnered with CobbRides costs $50 per month, including gas. Only 7 riders needed to start and the driver rides for free.

        We have vanpools in final formation stages from the following locations:

      • Norcross/Doraville (Chastain Meadows destination)
      • Ellijay/Ball Ground/Canton/Holly Springs/Woodstock (KSU destination)
