The Robert Allen Group is proud to once again be the host of one of the upstate of South Carolina’s most exciting events of the summer, the TOUR DE PEACH.
24 Hours of Booty is the one and only 24-hour road cycling charity event in the country. The official 24-hour road ride of the Lance Armstrong Foundation, this unique and exciting event is fully supported on a traffic-free loop. The event originated in 2002 when one man set out to cycle for 24 hours to raise money for the LAF. He set his sights on a three-mile loop of roadway, nicknamed the “Booty Loop” by local runners, cyclists and sports enthusiasts, in Charlotte, N.C.’s tree-lined Myers Park neighborhood. He completed his mission and started a movement.
