Poker Run

Holy ----! I did not see this coming. Over 220 riders and over $3,000 raised for Dilworth Middle School. I will post all the numbers by next weekend.

I want to thank all of you for participating, helping spread the word, helping with sponsors and having fun. I talked with most of you on the ride and heard a lot of positive comments. I know it wasn't perfect but it is only our second run and we will continue to work to make it perfect!

BIG thanks to the bars for hosting the run and making it work for us. We went from 100 riders to 220 within a year - we hope to make the same kind of jump in the fall.

I am meeting with Cindy on Monday to discuss the date for next September and to see what worked this time and what we need to fix for next time. I can tell you right now we are going to look at adding one to two more bars and more time on the course for socializing.

If you have comments or would like to add some ideas - send them my way. I want this to be fun for everyone. I also know that we will get bigger and make it better every time we host the event.

No Ride this Week

I apologize for telling some of you yesterday that we would be on the road Sunday. I have a car wash to run at Dilworth on Saturday, does the fund-raising ever end? So Saturday is no good and I said we would ride on Sunday. BUT it is Mothers Day and I think I better help my kids celebrate for my better half. After all she puts up with me all of the other days, so I need to take the weekend off.

I will send out another letter next week with the exact totals from the Poker Run - Date for September Poker Run - and the ride date for May 15th weekend. If any one has a preference for Saturday or Sunday let me know.
