Win a cool bike & support a worthy cause

Have you been thinking to yourself, "Hmm, where could I enter to win a bike and support a charitable cause at the same time?" If you have, well then today is your lucky day!

My uncle Warren is training for his first-ever triathlon and he's doing it as a member of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team in Training program. If you're a long-time reader of this blog, you may remember that Jason and I both participated in Team in Training. It is an amazing program and a very worthy cause.

Anyway, back to the point. As part of his fundraising, Warren is raffling off this bike:




It's a Trek 7.5 FX Hybrid/Cross bike, plus a new helmet -- a $1040 value! And get this -- he's selling the tickets for only $10 each! He'll only be selling 300 tickets, so your chances of winning are pretty decent (it's not 1 in a million, ok). The bike will be raffled off on May 3, so you have just a few weeks to get your chance to win.

Here's how to buy your raffle tickets: Purchase your tickets via Paypal. Send the money (1 ticket = $10, 2 tickets = $20, and so on) to Warren's Paypal account at opperman.warren@att.net. Be sure to include your contact information with your transaction so that you can be reached if you win. Purchase your tickets before May 3 to enter!

If you don't want a new bike, but would still like to donate toward Warren's fundraising efforts (c'mon folks, he's trying to raise $7500!), visit his training and fundraising Website at http://pages.teamintraining.org/in/Steelhd09/wopperman. All donations are TAX DEDUCTIBLE! Plus, they go to a great cause.


Thanks everybody!
