    Help Me Fight Cancer with Fred Hutch - Plus Raffle with SKIS and Wine!

    Hi Everyone! In August I'm riding my bike 50 miles with Obliteride to raise money for Fred Hutch Cancer Research Center. I really believe in Fred Hutch and their research, immunotherapy, and clinical trials that save lives. When you donate, I don't see the money, it goes directly to Fred Hutch through the Obliteride portal:

    https://tinyurl.com/obliterideLVIRDEH

    To sweeten the deal, I'm offering either a $150 bottle of wine from my favorite winery or an alcohol-free gift basket as a raffle item for those who donate $25 or more. The wine is Wilson Kenneth Carl 2014 Zinfandel. Each "ticket" is $25, so if you donate $100, you get 4 tickets. I will video and send out the raffle drawing process so everyone knows it's fair. I will do the drawing on August 18th, one week after the ride, but get your donations in early! I can see your donation amounts on the website referenced above.

    Thank you so much for considering helping me raise money, I really appreciate it!

    This should not be on the second page. Cancer sucks and Obliteride is a great way to donate funds directly to a research hospital working on cures and treatments for cancer.

    my matching gift basket:

    180 igneous fff, 230 flex, white top, wood sidewalls. barely skied. bomber bishop and dynafit mount. these i beams will take more mounts.

    live to ski sticker(when steve romeo died, his sister put the remaining stickers on here, i was lucky enough to get one. in my letter to her, i said that i believe in live to ski, as in you have to be alive to ski.)

    original ride the lightening tape. i've had this for over 30 years. it works.(because lets face it, if your strapping into these boards, you are riding the lightening)

    shipping on me. hope that helps and have a good ride!

    WOAH!!! Was away for a week vacation and this is incredible to return to - thank you byates1!!! I will include the skis in my raffle drawing, and thank you for being willing to cover shipping! Do you prefer that these skis are raffled for maggots who donated, only? I have a number of other family and friends who have also bought "tickets" but I don't think they would appreciate these skis if they won them. What do you think?

    don’t know if they have a cat.
    Seriously, I might start using the word “jong” or “gaper” to get her prepped. Lol. And we're still working on the cat closet...still smells like cat pee. Cat ownership ETA set for October. Also thank you for bumping this thread, you're the man!

    Thank you MTT for the welcome back.

    THANK YOU ICEMAN!!! I'm honored.

    And thank you to whomever else donated recently, you are awesome and I will get proper thank yous out soon.

    Because of you all, I have exceeded my fundraising goal!! Love you guys.
