Title: Looking for Past Wild Ride participants! Post by Turtle on Apr 9th, 2009, 2:36pm I've been contacted by the Richardson Wild Ride to find people who have ridden in the ride in the past and live in Richardson or Plano. Please contact me if you're willing to be interviewed for a possible story. Thanks! Turtle |

Title: Re: Looking for Past Wild Ride participants! Post by Turtle on Apr 9th, 2009, 4:52pm They are looking to do stories on individuals that ride for a reason. Since the organization raisers money for cancer research, they're looking to do "pieces" on people who were touched by cancer...i.e. family, friends...and that's why they do the ride. |

Title: Re: Looking for Past Wild Ride participants! Post by Opus the Poet on Apr 10th, 2009, 7:29pm I had a lumpectomy (benign) from my left breast in 1997, but I just rode the ride because I like to ride. [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif] |

Title: Re: Looking for Past Wild Ride participants! Post by Turtle on Apr 11th, 2009, 7:21am Would you be willing to embellish upon that for a story in a publication? Maybe say you rode, because you're a survivor? ;) They're needing stories. |

Title: Re: Looking for Past Wild Ride participants! Post by Opus the Poet on Apr 11th, 2009, 3:33pm Well, I do work for an online newspaper. And 4 of my 5 grandparents died from one form or another of cancer (one grandparent re-married after a divorce). I guess it wouldn't be too far of a stretch to say I ride for a reason, and just not mention that I ride mainly to move my butt from point A to point B, at a time of my choosing. |
