YOU CAN STAND UNDER MY UMBRELLA

I posted this on my facebook...wanted to share it any place possible.  The more it is shared the more likely we are to find a team of organizers and sponsors etc....please contact me if you wish to help or will you at least share?  THANK YOU!
Thinking, there has to be a way to quickly organize a ride to help raise money for those who lost everything in the storm this week. (Hopefully riding quickly south...I HATE the cold!) but I'm so scatter brained lately I can't think to pull it together!!!!! I'm open to doing the peddling and a LOT of it if anyone wants to help pull together a charity ride to help our neighbors who aren't going to have very good holidays otherwise. I know we'd need sponsors or a sponsor to help with covering food and boarding at night..not picky, eat light and willing to camp with electricity (for heater) and showers, and likely spare tire (tube) or two ( Would gladly wear warm under amour or clothing with sponsors names/info on it and talk about your product), would need help getting pledges...can be as low as .05 or .10 per mile, we'll RIDE to make it worthwhile! Perhaps one sponsor would be a local restaurant and would host a send off meet & greet where a portion of the profits could go to the benefit and people could offer flat donations as well? Just some ideas...but is there anyone who can help pull it together??? I'm up for a LONG ride! Challenge me and help rebuild Kokomo and make sure your friends and neighbors have a good holiday season? Any good organizers up to working with us to pull this together??????? Run your ideas by me if so and we'll go from there!
