Six young men — current and former residents of the Paul Anderson Youth Home in Vidalia — are taking a 550-mile bike ride in the summer heat on a threefold mission. Riders on the seventh annual Paul Anderson Cycling Challenge set out from Vidalia about 7:30 a.m. Saturday. Before 11 a.m., they had reached Daisy in Evans County, where they stopped for rest and a snack.
