Dave,
I support young athletes regardless if they are blue, red or pink.
Aaron saved his money last year so he could come to Oregon to race because
he heard about what a great place this is.
Aaron also has been working hard to raise money for the Lance Armstrong
Foundation, he leads our Monday night coffee rides, which encourages
beginning cyclist to ride their bikes. Also, Aaron drops what he is doing
when Candi needs him and help?s officiating at an event (one?s you have
raced in, maybe you didn?t see him turning lap cards).
Just for the record here is my U23 line up for 2005:
Dean Tracy born in Texas
Walker Starr born in Wisconsin USA and who is currently living in Oregon for
the next 3 years to get a degree from PSU
Traci Caroll born in Hermiston Oregon
Eugene Checerine, born in the USA
Scott Allen, New Zealand
Aaron Tuckerman New Zealand
Now to continue on with your below mention statement. . . . . Let see, I
have sent Traci Carroll to NORBA National series, sent Dean Tracy to U23 US
road National, Walker Starr to US Road Nationals, helped out Mikkel Bossen
with housing at superweek and take him when I can to events that our team
goes to ?oh and by the way, he is not even on Team Rubicon but I help him
out. I still help out Solomon Woras who is not on Rubicon anymore. Rubicon
picked up Craig Wilcox and Josh Kerhkof, last year because RMS folded ( I
had no budget to do that, but did anyway)? they where left with out any $$
to go to U23 National and with out equipment to compete on. I paid for them
out of my own pocket so they would have an opportunity to finish the season,
both of them signed with Pro teams. Rubicon help?s direct young junior
riders to Fred Meyers, BBC and to Nathan Hobson's team as their programs are
much better than we could ever put together.
How much have you and your Guinness team done to help young talented
Northwest riders?

Not to start a fire, but why should we donate money to send new zealanders to
worlds? What about our own US riders from right here in Oregon. Especially
OBRA's juniors and U23's. Shouldn't they get support first to go to nat's and
large events? What I don't understand is why Noreene spends so much time and
money on non-US riders? There is alot of young talent here in the Pac
Northwest that could benfit from team Rubicon.

to Worlds
Hi Obraland~
I want to thank everyone for all the donations everyone has made to LAF
and support in years pass for Team Rubicon. I and the riders on Team Rubicon
really truly appreciate it.
A week and a half ago, I just found out that one of our riders, Aaron
Tuckerman was named to the New Zealand's U23 world Mt. Bike team. Aaron
has been training hard this year and I want to do everything I can
possibly do to get him there. So with that said, I have been saving a
special raffle item for next year's Rubicon raffle and would like to
offer it up now to help fund Aaron's airline ticket to Milan Italy
($1,400 USD).
I have one authentic autographed Tom Boonen helmet generously donated by
Lazer helmets to be auctioned off to the highest bidder( I have photos if
anyone wants to see them). The money donated is tax deductible and 100% of
all money donated will go directly to Aaron to help him get to worlds.
If you are wondering why doesn't the New Zealand Federation help out? Well
they are even a smaller federation than USA cycling, therefore we, Rubicon
need to cover all expenses such as airfare, food, hotel, transportation
and other miscellaneous items so Aaron can compete. This is a huge
opportunity for Aaron and if any business's want to step up and make an
offer on Boonen's helmet, we will gladly put your logo on Aaron's helmet.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to consider my request. Auction
ends August 6th, 2005. Please send bids to noreneg-@comcast.net
<mailto:norenegodfrey%40comcast.net> or
call 503-806-2215.
Cheers
Norrene
