AIDS LifeCycle - An Experience of a lifetime.

Nine times, I have cycled 575 miles (from San Francisco to Los Angeles) in a bike ride called AIDS LifeCycle.  And nine times, I completed the ride knowing I did the right thing.  Over the years, I have personally raised over $40, 000.00  to assist in AIDS research, AIDS treatment, AIDS education, and AIDS services for individuals in need 

In June 2007, for my 10th Year, I will participate in AIDS LifeCycle .   

I am committed to cycling (perhaps for you) from San Francisco to Los Angeles, 585 miles, in seven days.  Also, I am committed to raising well beyond the $2,500 (per cyclist) fundraising minimum. And through a relationship with you individually or with your company, I can continue to assist those whom are confronted with the challenges which AIDS inflicts upon them.   

The Event has many intangible benefits you can be proud of -- like the advertising that helps increase awareness about AIDS; like the way it gives hope to HIV positive cyclist; like the way the 2, 000 cyclist get people talking about AIDS as they go out and seek sponsorships; like the children that line the streets to cheer on the cyclist and get a firsthand experience of heroism; or like the way the bike ride teaches people that we can work together to solve our problems. These are the things that make this event so remarkably magical. These are important reasons to give as well. And these are only some of things you can count on the AIDS LifeCycle Event to deliver.   

As I ride those 575 miles, I will express your shared interest in "humanity;" I shall speak of the fine services and products which your company offers; I will  take every "Kodak moment" to capture your support in action; and through my interactions with various radio stations and television broadcasts, provide you with a marketing/advertising edge which most companies would enjoy. And to top it off, I could be wearing your company logo.  Just imagine . ..your team logo amongst a stream of 2,000 cyclists riding down the California Coast line.   

I will gladly accept sponsorships on every level. 

You write the check  . . .AIDS Awareness, AIDS Education, AIDS Prevention and AIDS Health Services continue . ... . ..(tax id number is available). . . 

You send the cycling gear "with your logo" . . ..I'll walk the walk & talk the talk (you get publicity)....
