 Love Ride 21

It’s that time of year again. It’s Love Ride time, the annual fundraiser I’ve participated in for the last three years, and I’m doing it again this year.

What is the Love Ride? I’ll let you follow that link that I helpfully provided there for you to get all the gory details, and instead I’ll just sum it up in a nutshell: It’s an annual motorcycle-based fundraiser here in Southern California, where 30,000+ bikers get together and ride to raise money for Reading by 9, the Muscular Dystrophy Association, the City of Hope, Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Los Angeles, and a host of other groups. We ride, you pay, people who need help get it. What’s not to love?

And this is the part where I hit you, my super fantastic readers, up for $$$. I’m not like all those freeloader sites you see out there, the ones with the Amazon or PayPal donate buttons: “Hi, Chuck Atkins, please support my I Love Kittens site!” No, the Pie is on me, and I’ll never panhandle you for pocket change to help support my hobby. But I will hit you up for cash for this — because it’s for a good cause, not because I want it.

So go ahead and click on the Love Ride 21 graphic over there in the right-hand column and donate a few bucks to sponsor me in the Love Ride. My entry’s already paid for (by me, thankyewverymuch); I’m just asking you to help me meet my goal of raising $500.

If I do hit that $500 goal, well… I’ll post a picture of … something me-related. Let me know when you donate and what you want a picture of and I’ll do it if we top $500. And here’s the scary part: there’s no limits on this — you name it, I’ll do it. Whatever.

Damn. Now I’m scared. Go donate, quick, before I change my mind.
