Well, it's been very busy here at the 2011 Ride HQ, also known as - My House. I've been on the phone with GoPro, and they are very excited about this year's ride. We are going to try something new this year and attempt a very cool time-lapsed photo album with GoPro. Basically, the plan is to set up a GoPro HD HERO to take a still shot every sixty seconds for the entire trip and then chop it up and make a really great photo album. The staff at GoPro are full of ideas and are very willing to help out.
We anticipate the arrival of the raffle GoPro very soon and will announce the next event once the camera is here. We hope to see a lot of motorbikers there! We are thinking about a weekend event, during the day. How does that sound for everyone?
Tomorrow night is the ADVrider bike night at Zuffy's Place. Curt and I will be there, and we hope that it is still going even though the attendance has been low. We know it's been a cold winter, but now is the time to dust off the bikes and get ready for the season.
As usual, the Donate Page is up and running. It is set up as a Komen Team Page this year. We have been working on recruiting more riders for all (or part) of the trip to help raise awareness and funds for Susan G. Komen for the Cure. So far the new approach is working. Once we confirm with the riders and answer all their questions, we will post up and have them tell us what inspired them to ride for a cure. It's been a slow start and the ride has become logistically demanding with new riders and a new agenda, but stay tuned as we will be getting more and more in the swing for this year's ride.
Also, check out the route page. The 2011 Route is up!
Thank you everyone, Daniel Palazzolo
Any word on when the next event is? How was the turnout at Zuffy's?
