Just watched the video.  Even though they edited it down it was still a fantastic piece.  I hope you get a huge outcome for the ride because of it.

OMG you can't imagine all the people responding to us being on TV so many sad stories out there I've told them all about IHD so maybe we'll get some more newbies also we DID get it on tape :yahoo; we have people who don't have bikes but are coming to the ride to show support, people are so cool. Sluff I hope I get to ride on your bike for a little bit (gotta make Susie envious) he he

Your just lucky it's for a good cause or Rerun and i will have to tag team on ya ;)  :boxing; :boxing;

Your doing an awesome job Lola, keep up the great work and keep your faith girlfriend, God Bless  :cuddle;

So far Lola, It will be My wife and I and My friend and his wife from Richmond. We all ride our own bikes so that will be cool. Of course you can get a ride on my bike. Goofynina was supposed to get her ride in Vegas.  :sarcasm;

Hey Lola,
Great coverage! I noticed they have the Hitching Post's website address shown in the video - it would be a good idea if they added your event to their calendar, if they are willing. http://hponline.com/event_calendar.asp?sid=07891809X7K19K2007J4I14I54JPMQ571R0&date=8%2F19%2F2007

Just got off the phone with the most amazing person, her husband is Otto's boss and when she found out we were going to have food before and after the ride she got on the phone and found people to donate EVERYTHING :bow; :bow;. I was having problems getting Cub to give me a $25 gift card to help out with expenses. She will set everything up and take down she has people who wanted to help!!!!! I'm still in shock over how people have been so great. Now I don't need to be so stressed about how much I spend on food and not having the money for bills and of course VEGAS. :yahoo; :yahoo;

Just heard from the PR director for clear channel ( they run 7 diffrent radio stations in MN) they have the more popular stations. Well on Sunday mornings they run ads and talk about diffrent organizations trying to do diffrent things in the state and there's a charge, but because I'm doing this all on my own and expenses are coming out of my own pocket they are going to talk about the ride for FREE and next year wants to have at least a months notice so they can talk about it every Sunday :yahoo; :yahoo; now if only I would here from Oprah hehehe
