    Help Needed!

    My son is in a contest at school. the prize is a class pizza party. The class that collects postmarked postcards from each of the 50 states the fastest - will win. I did this two years ago with my daughter, and thanks to all of you - her class won! Each postcard must be mailed and postmarked from the state to qualify. Please send to Stuart Livingston, 601 Bali Court, San Ramon, CA 94582.
    Thanks, Bekki

    I ride with the Valley Spokesmen in California. We host the Cinderella Classic ride each year. The ride has been changed for next year from March 28th to April 4th. so mark your calendars!!!

    I seem to remember sending a post card the last time, so I'm going to say its legit and not a prank.

    Postcards from 50 states

    I am for real. I am 54 years old with a 13 year old daughter and a 10 year old son. I help lead the Cinderella training rides each year with my good friends from LunaChix. I raced with the Valley Spokesmens womens team for about 10 years, but found it difficult to train with two young kids at my advancing age!! You can google my name and find blurbs about me.

    Hi Bekki

    I had my doubts about you but you appear plenty of times on the internet, so I reckon you are kosher!

    Any good receiving a card from the UK, would be happy to oblige?

    Thank you!

    We got your postcard today! Next time we go to Baltimore, we will take you up on the beer! I lived in Baltimore for 10 years starting back in 1979 when the Inner Harbor opened up. I worked for Union Trust Bank that became Signet Bank - no telling what its called now. I love the area. Would shop in Ellicott City for treasures! I have so many friends in the area - we try to get together every 5 years or so in Ocean City! Thanks again. Bekki

    Postcards received!

    Thank you Maryland, Utah, Montana, Alaska, California and Texas - we received your cards on Saturday. We were gone this weekend - mountain biking in Big Trees/Calaveras park, but the cards were in our mailbox upon our return! I haven't been off road in a while and at elevation - I was worn out. My daughter out-rode me on this trip. Have to get reinvigorated and lose 6 pounds to climb better - ugh! Thanks again and I'll keep you posted on what we receive. Bekki
