Aloha Team!
Picture yourself cresting Vail Pass in THIS! (with many thanks to the talented folks at Primal Sportswear) -- all WoJ riders who commit to raise or donate $500 will receive this awesome Wheels of Justice custom cycling jersey!
Can we make it to 200 rider before The Courage Classic Closes?
The answer lies within! Right now, we have 152 bold riders signed-up for the team. Our good-natured rivals, the Spin Doctors are drafting right behind us with 112 riders! Quien es mas macho -- the doctors or the lawyers? You make the call!!
Let's do everything we can to be the biggest team in the Courage Classic for the second year in a row! Why do we care? Because it will allow us to make the biggest contribution possible to Children's Hospital. Plus it'll make for a rockin' party at the finish line on Sunday of the Courage Classic.
SO, please take a moment right now to forward this email to any friends, family or colleagues who might consider joining us. Tell them that every rider receives a cool long-sleeved WoJ training jersey and those who commit to raise $500 or more get a terrific WoJ cycling jersey as well.
