The day after the Atlanta Supercross, the annual DMXS Charity Ride for A/T was held at Bremen Race Park to benefit the A/T Children's Project, and among the activities were riding (both on 50s and bigger bikes), autographs with top pros, and a charity auction that featured rider memorabilia from nearly all the top riders in the sport. The final tally is still coming in, but the last we heard, the proceeds had reached $29,000, all of which will be donated to the A/T Children's Project, a non-profit organization that supports bio-medial research projects, scientific conferences, and a clinical center aimed at finding a cure or life-improving therapies for A/T.
