Okay, so I'm back on my bike again (as if I could stay off for long!) and I wanted to give you some updates/musings.
First of all, the title of this blog is all about sending out positive thoughts, vibes, prayers, good luck charms, etc that my video will make the semi finals of the "Win Any Bike Contest" sponsored by Bicycling Magazine.
On my last post I mentioned how I had assembled my crack team of future film directors to create a fun, hip video for the contest. Well, here is what they created; http://video.bicycling.com/video/Ride-for-the-Sunrise. I was going to just embed the entire video but unfortunately that's not allowed per the contest rules. So instead, I would encourage everyone you know to go on and rate it highly - perhaps that will encourage the judges to put me into the semifinals. MAKE COMMENTS! GIVE ME A HIGH RATING! (okay, enough of the subliminals).
I'm really not doing this for capitalistic reasons - my wife will tell you I really don't have space for another bike. However, with all that has happened to my family as it has fought its many battles against cancer I really need to do this ride to not only help those still fighting the disease but to show my gratitude that my immediate family is still healthy. My current bikes just aren't up to the challenge but I can't afford to buy one that will be right for the job so I'm hoping against hope that I can break into the semifinals and win one!
So, enjoy the video. After the final results I'll be embedding it on my blogsite for all of you to see but for now just click on the above line and post your comments!
Stay well, and I'll see you out there!
