Does it seem odd that this is the same day as the RAIN ride? Both rides going through (by) the same town. What gives?

RAIN ride. There will be a large contingent of BF'ers there (2-5 from BFNIC). Tom you could always ride the RAIN and send a check into Tour de Cure.

I am doing the Green Bay Ride. I have done it for the last five years. At least they have moved it to June so we do not have to ride in the snow. I have also ridded the Chicago ride in Dupage county. It was nice to ride with the large groups and the after party was great.

If I placed an Ad in the wanted section on Craigslist asking for donations with a link to my personal and team pages, would it get flagged and removed? I'm not sure I'd get any donations that way, but I figure every little bit helps.
