Poker Run Thank YouThanks for riding in the May 1, 2010 Fat Boy Biking Poker Run! Hey Fat Boy Bikers, this is an abbreviated version of a longer review of Mays Fat Boy poker run to read a detailed version please visit: www.fatboybiking.com.We had over 230 riders and we will be able to donate $3,200 to Dilworth Middle School. I am floored and astonished what you and the community have been able to do in just one year. Coments Concerns Opinions: We have heard you and we promise to keep improving the Poker Run every time it is held, issues that will be addressed. #1. Length of event: Adding an hour next time. #2. Cheating with the cards: Cindy from OSkis has a solution so this will not be a problem anymore. #3. Some of the bars were too crowded and ill staffed: We are meeting and planning. #4. I want to ride more: Original ride and adding a 40 to 50 mile ride. #5 Why only Dilworth: Expanding and looking at different organizations. #6 T-Shirt shortage: We will be ready for 500 if I owe you one I will send another email shortly. #7 What about Facebook: Fan page just started: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Fat-Boy-Biking/116322481731395 Overall everyone seemed to have a great time. I thank all the volunteers, bars, sponsors, and riders for making this fun to coordinate. You need to have a goal and so far we have reached every goal. My goal for September is to have 350 to 500 total riders with seven bars participating. I also hope to include in our Grand Prize pool, three bikes, flat screen TV, iPod, and a Hotel Package. Of course more great prizes to be offered in the raffle drawing. So I end by thanking you again and ask you to bring a friend or two with you September 18, 2010. Early Registration starts now. Yes it is already up on Active.com and on our website: www.fatboybiking.com.
Going SaturdayGoing out to Verdi not sure if going to do the loop or stop somewhere shorter. Starting at Reno High Saturday. I have to be back to Reno High by 9 am - wife is leaving for Bay to Breakers and need to be home with my kids.So going to leave Reno High at 7 am. Thinking Mayberry Park or store right after the round about outside Verdi. Basically an hour out and 45 minutes back in. Of course we can split up and go our own way.
