    St. Baldrick's Foundation: Please donate and watch Yusuke get his head shaved!

    Hi all,

    I've been on the forum for many years but haven't met most of you. Those that do know me, understand that I care very much for children. Last year, a dear friend's daughter, Elsa, was diagnosed with cancer. To cheer her up, I had her paint my race body work and wore it proudly at the Racing 2 Save Lives Miller Motorsports Park event.

    I'm hoping to volunteer at R2SL this year again, but I'm also going to be joining Team Elsa for St. Baldrick's Foundation this year. This group helps raise funds for childhood cancer by shaving heads. How cool is it to watch children laugh as they watch people get shaved?

    Here's the link for the online donation:
    http://www.stbaldricks.org/participa...?ShaveeID=6880

    My goal is to raise $1000. Anything helps. If you have a moment to spare, I humbly request your support for this cause, and for those that can make it, come see me get my head shaved in Boulder on March 17th. The shaving event will be held at the Republic of Boulder here:
    1095 Canyon Blvd.
    Boulder, CO 80304

    Shaving begins at 11am!!!

    Thank you for your support!!!!!

    Yusuke

    Yusuke-

    I think it's great what you're doing for Elsa and the other kids. I'll be donating by way of turning in about a dozen or so cell phones via the link, http://www.stbaldricks.org/get_invol...artridges.html Kudos to you for taking on this for a good cause.

    Re: St. Baldrick's Foundation: Please donate and watch Yusuke get his head shaved!

    Thanks guys!

    Thanks for donating the cellphones GSXR~SNAIL, and thanks for your support Dan (you are too generous and too cool!!!). It was awesome riding the 7R with the children's energy put into the fairings. It gave me 20HPs just with the paintings!

    I'll definitely post up my before/after pic. What's funny (or may not be?) is that my wife doesn't know I'm doing this and she's in Japan until the end of March. She's coming back to the US with her mother in tow, only to see my bald ass. We'll see how they both react. Maybe it's a good mother-in-law deterent!

    Just for kicks, here's my ZX7R, Children's edition with some familar faces.

    Nice shots!
    BTW I thought it was your head getting shaved


    To all you CSC-ites:
    Get off your dead butts and donate for this NOW!
    Don't make me hunt you down. This is a very worthy
    cause. So make it worth Yusuke's while.

    Hey Jeff,

    I don't know yet, but I'll see if Elsa's mother knows the time the shaving will commence.

    Hey Yusuke It's been a long time (I think the last time was R2SL 2005). Try to get pics of when your wife and mother see your new Mr. Clean look

    Hey Alex! Long time no talk!

    I'm thinking of taking a friend with a video camera with me to DIA when I go pick up my wife/mother-in-law. That maybe a you-tube short video moment!

    I updated my original post, but for those that want to get a good laugh, the shaving begins at 11am apparently. Come by if you have some time!

    I won't be able to come see you get your wig trimmed, but it definitely sounds entertaining. I hope you raise a lot of money!

    If you have it, an extra 5 or 10 dollars isn't going to kill you, to help support a good cause. I mean who doesn't drop a $5 on a single bottle of beer w/tip on any given night downtown.

    And plus, who doesn't want to see a perfectly good head of hair get clipped.

    Re: St. Baldrick's Foundation: Please donate and watch Yusuke get his head shaved!

    Since I am already going bald naturally, I decided you should have to do so too. I want to see pictures here on the 18th at the latest.

    Yusuke is now 72% of the way to his goal. I say the CSC should help him get to 100%. It is only another $280. That is $1 from the next 280 of you to read this...
