    Thank you!

    AND WE ARE DONE! Unless another $100 pops up very soon I'm closing this out at 7 wagons, so I have time to collect the money.

    A HUGE thank you to everyone who has donated for this great cause!

    Ya beat me to it! This is such a great cause, I figured why not.


    I'll put another $25 towards an 8th wagon if anyone else can help complete it by tonight (so we can get Ralph the money).


    And a thought about what gets written on the plaque - if we don't have enough room for names or initials, put the club name (and website URL?), we could set up a special page on the website listing all the names of poeple who contributed.

    I have another $10 for #8!
    Not a shred of evidence exists in favor of the idea that life is serious.

    Well, alright then... Guess I have another $10 on #8. So, we're already $45 towards it. Can we get the rest today??

    Actually, Ralph, since you're coordinating this (and have already pledged $40 or $50), I wasn't expecting you to contribute to this one too, but if you can...

    I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move – it’s in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.

    We have an 8th wagon partially pledged to ($45 so far). How much are you willing to contribute towards it. We're trying to get it done for tonight so we can get Ralph the money (at Brecks).

    I'd do more if I could, but I'll bring it up to $65.00

    Im here now. Hey Ralph, my pleasure and hey what the heck, 7 is my lucky number.

    All for a good cause, one that is close to my family.

    Ok, should have the final number (8 for sure, possibly a 9th) this evening, and I have either received all funds or have them accounted for (i.e. I know when I'm getting them), so I will be driving to RMHD tomorrow morning to write them a check and fill out the inscriptions for the tags.

    I am amazed at the generosity from this, we have all definitely made some kids' lives better this holiday season.

    Thanks Barn!

    I think also of special note, is that a bunch of sportbikers are about to give a Harley dealership $800. That just seems ironic to me.

    Correction... We're now giving $900 to a Harley dealership!

    Thank you to our favorite Wednesday night hangout, Breckenridge Brewery, for contributing another $100 for this great cause!

    That is really cool of Breck's to do that.



    Of course we are all heading over there to give it right back after the rally.

    I wrote RMHD the check for $900 this afternoon and filled out the inscription tags, so we are good to go!

    If anyone would like a receipt for tax/other purposes for your donation to this, please let me know, I'll be happy to make you one.
