AtlRoof.com

AtlRoof.com seems a strange company to sponsor a scavenger hunt, but AtlRoof.com is no stranger to cycling. They have their own road racing team and sponsor road races through out the season. A scavenger hunt is a totally different bike event, but they got excited about it and are giving up the goods! Just wait! Fun!

If you have hail damage on your roof, need a new roof or just want a new roof for fun. AtlRoof.com is your company. Check em out!

Octane

You might have recognized the font from The Puzzle flier. That font is on the wall of Octane Coffee Shop over on Howell Mill. Octane is probably the best coffee shop in the South. Seriously, Tony and his gang make geek out over coffee. They go to school for it. They have competitions to see who makes the best coffee drinks. They get fussy if they don't make a perfect fern.

Don't know what a fern is? Well, get on over there and tell them you want the perfect fern!

Octane is donating six prizes for The Puzzle. Six fast puzzle solving types will win these prizes and be the envy of their competitors. Yes yes!

Girl Bike Dog!

So! You gotta have a bag to give away, right? Girl-Bike-Dog has stepped up and made a custom bag for the winner of this crazy competition. Of course, whoever wins will have received several other prizes during the evening's adventure, but this custom bag from Girl-Bike-Dog tells the world that you won the whole damn thing! Good job future winner of The Puzzle!!

psst! Girls have just as good a chance to win and guys. Just sayin...

Trailer!

You might not have seen the trailer for The Puzzle! Or maybe you want to see it again.

Authentique Home!

What antique store sponsors a bike event? None, because antique stores are for old people and people who ride bikes are scared of old people.

Oh wait! What's this? Authentique Home is breaking free of those stereotypes!? So, I hear!

Authentique Home is stocked with furnishings that have more character than what you will find at your favorite 17th St location! You think your grandma has cool stuff in her house? Well, wait till you give her a tour of your place after you visit Authentique Home! She will think Eugene Debs invented a time machine and came back as an interior designer. ....just wait.

Authentique Home! Repeat 2 times!

Candi, the owner of this fun store, has stepped forward and donated some gift certificates those fast types out there. Thanks Candi!
