Attending a 2006 LIVESTRONG ride?
Raise funds for the Skinny Tire Festival and we’ll
designate all funds to the LIVE STRONG ride
of your choice under your account. Check
LAF schedule for the 2006 LIVE STRONG rides
at
www.livestrong.

All donations must be forwarded to the Skinny Tire
Festival office first to qualify for our event.
We will then forward funds to your designated
LIVESTRONG ride by March 15 to qualify for
LAF benefits. (Funds donated first to LAF will
not
count toward Skinny Tire Festival fundraising).
Skinny Tire Festival riders need not sign up for a
LIVESTRONG ride. What you do here is
plenty! We thank you.
But if you are signed up for a LAF ride, notify
us of your chosen ride when you send donations to
our office but no later than March 3, 2006 so we can
allocate your donations appropriately. Sorry, LAF has
no exceptions to this process.

Want to be in the "LANCE ARMSTRONG" movie?
By Carlton Reid, at BikeBiz.com: Sony and Columbia
Pictures say their proposed
movie about Lance Armstrong "would not be
complete" without real-life stories
from people inspired by Armstrong's "perseverance,
courage and survival." Sign a
binding online contract, and your experiences could
cameo in the movie that's
expected to place Matt Damon in the leading role.
The Lance biopic will be based
on Armstrong's autobiography, “It's Not About the
Bike: My Journey Back to Life”
