Raymond Construction, Orlando Central Center, Summit Realty and Wolfe Financial Group.

Company Chairman and team participant Lonnie Peterson noted that “In addition to raising funds for a cause that is near and dear to many at our company, the process of preparing for the ride was also quite enjoyable. We felt a real sense of camaraderie as we went on training rides, put together the jerseys with our team sponsors and saw our vision become a reality. It was a great experience and we look forward to doing it again next year.”
