I am not very lucky, but it is a worthy cause. Throwing my name in the hat because that is one sweet bike!

I wouldn't buy a pink bike, but when I win that one tomorrow I'll ride it with pride!

Sorry. I already have all the pink accessories, so I think the bike is mine. I bought 2 tickets to make sure!

Ok you gals... I've gone back to Speed Goat, but can't find anything on their page about the raffle... I'm sure my name is on there somewhere!
Any clues as to how to navigate??

Looks like they closed the raffle site. They are probably looking for a hat. Wouldn't it be cool if a TE gal won? I already have a pink ('ish) bike so....

From their site:
AMAZING DAY
Two days ago I wasn't sure if we'd hit our goal of $20,000 or not. I decided that I'd be happy with whatever we raised. Well, I closed the ticket purchase pages this morning, and was surprised and elated at the amount of money we've raised for Breast Cancer Fund. The final total was $21,600... or 2,160 tickets. In fact, customers and friends of Speedgoat bought 265 tickets on the last full day of sales, yesterday, Wednesday July 19th.
Some other stats? Sure.
The 2160 tickets were purchased by 808 people. That averages to 2.56 tickets per person. Californians purchased more tickets than residents of any other state, with 170 Golden Staters buying 503 tickets. Second place could be Virginia or Pennsylvania, depending on whether you count tickets or purchasers. 46 Virginians bought 176 tickets, and 131 tickets were purchased by 58 people in Pennsylvania. Fifty four US states and Canadian provinces are represented (I haven't checked to see which ones aren't), and 189 tickets were sold to 88 people living outside of the US or Canada.
Well, it's time to start printing out the raffle tickets and getting ready for the drawing. Keep checking the website, we'll post the winner this afternoon.

They have posted the winner. It was from Texas, but not me. Que sera sera. It is a great idea and cause. I would buy again next year!

I am happy for the winner. I would like it to have been me, but I donated to a very worthy cause, so it was well worth it.
