And dont leave your helmet on your hotel bed like I did. but if you do, go by the medical tent, the lead medical person (and I appologize as I cant remember her name) found me a helmet to borrow and saved the day. I've talked to her at each of the livestrong events I've been able to ride in since, she is super nice! And lastly, if your in Austin on saturday, consider taking part in one of the mellow Johnny sponcered rides, MattC, AngieG and I did a 15 miles Austin sightseeing tour/ ride with them, fanatstic!

And I also really like the guest posts for a little variety. So I'm totally looking forward to reading the upcoming guest posts from 'friends of Fatty'!!! YAY! Congrats to all the contest winners!

Or like one's yacht, just take delivery out of the country, then bring it back later as personal property. I’m pretty sure for tax purposes it’s a 1K bike.

I'm used to my slog-it-along LHT, me riding that new bike would be like a 20 year old clydsdale running the Kentucky Derby! Have fun with it Barry!!!!

Davidh - your idea of paying it forward is good but I will be selling my old bike to pay the taxes on the new bike. However, I will be making an additional cash donation to the Young Survival Coalition. Kelly K - no I did not go to school in NJ. I'm originally from Virginia and went to high school and college there. Thanks again Fatty and Dustin for all you do in the fight against cancer and your support for patients and their families.
