"NTx Bicycle Rally" Oct 13 - RBENT gathering?
Jul 22nd, 2012, 2:00pm
 
Got this in an email, about a rally in Roanoke....  $35 registration.  Tandem couples are $30 each.  Day of goes to $40.  www.ntbicyclerally.org
 
This sounds like another good opportunity for an RBENT gathering, as part of a rally...  They have offered a few "comp" registrations, as well as a place for a gathering tent/spot for us, which is kinda cool.  I'll have Sam send the comps to me in an email (.pdf file), and I'll pass them on to the first three who POST HERE ABOUT WANTING ONE (Terrie and I are going to claim one, to ride the Margarita Machine).  No additional fundraising is required, just pay your ride fee.
 
We'll probably take him up on the offer of a tent spot...

Dear Friends at Recumbent Cycling of North Texas,
 
My name is Sam Sellers. I am the Director for the North Texas Bicycle Rally. As
we have grown over the past four years I am seeking to broaden our rider base
for recumbent and Tandem cyclists. your I saw your web page and see that this
is a very large group of people that we can cater to. With that in mind, I am
seeking assistance in getting our event posted on your website and in your
newsletter is that is possible. As a token of our appreciation, I would like to
offer up 4 Complimentary ride passes and a booth area near our registration
area for the RBENT Team should you be interested. In addition, we will provide
space for a tent near the food and entertainment area for your use. With that
all said here is the information I would like to dissimenate to the RBENT
membership.
 
This coming October 13, at 9:00 A.M. the North Texas Children’s Charities will
be hosting the Fourth Annual North Texas Bicycle Rally. It is located in the
Alliance Gateway Warehouse District near Roanoke, TX. The North Texas Bicycle
Rally (NTBR) is an annual fund raising event for North Texas Children's
Charities. This charitable organization supports local and national
organizations that provide care and support for desperately ill children. This
year's beneficiary of the Bicycle Rally is St. Jude Children's Research
Hospital.
 
Former Dallas Cowboy Offensive Lineman Tom Rafferty will be starting the
Bicycle Rally this year and will be available for autographs at the conclusion
of the Bicycle Rally.
 
This year’s event we are expecting over 700 Cyclists. The routes will be cover
the rolling hills and off-the beaten path roads of North Tarrant and Southern
Denton Counties. We will be providing COMMEMORATIVE T-SHIRTS and Water Bottles
for the first 700 Registered Participants. For the past two years we have been
asked by several of the Bicycling Clubs and the more avid cyclists to add a
Metric Century to our Rally. So in response, this year we will have 5 Routes of
5, 10, 30, 50, and 62 miles. Our Bicycle Rally has outstanding Public Safety
traffic support, Chase and Lead Vehicles, Motorcycle escorts, SAG and Rider
support vehicles, plenty of Rest Stops and plenty of safe parking at the Start
Finish area of the Rally. At the conclusion of the Bicycle Rally we will be
hosting a Tail Ache Party with refreshments, free food provided by Chili's, and
the Live Music will be provided by the Robert Donahue Band.
 
 ***BRING YOUR CHAIRS AND COOLERS****

Thanks,
Samuel Sellers

Wish I could but I'm going to see TCU @ Baylor football that day.  Hubby and I went to Baylor, the rest of my family went to TCU.  Should be interesting.  Wink

Well, if you guys are gonna be there, I guess I gotta figure out a way to be there too, because I'm hooked. All I think about now is when is my next ride going to be.
 
Question: where do I get myself one of those fancy RBENT jerseys? I wanna show off like you guys do.

Great meeting you at the ride, Oliver! Paul worked up a group order for the rbent jerseys. Hopefully, we can eventually talk him into doing it again.

Maybe a long-sleeve option this time... Smiley

If it's a little cooler I will do this ride too.  I don't think I have ever ridden in that area and I like to see new places.
