Wednesday, December 23, 2009 Tour de Georgia cancelled for 2010 by VeloNation Press at 10:36 PM EST   comments Categories: Pro Cycling   The Tour de Georgia has been cancelled for the second consecutive year. In 2009 the race was also called off due to financial difficulties. The week long tour saw its profile grow each year from 2003 to 2008, but the last two years saw the race run without a title sponsor. Tom Saddlemire, board member of the Tour de Georgia Foundation, said organizers remain committed to bringing the race back "as soon as possible." With the "current economic climate" he said calling off the race was the best decision.       comments Follow @Pro_Cycling Tweet Subscribe via RSS or daily email Contact the editor about this article
