Please pimp this post!

So I'm up to having to ride 5.5 laps (or 15 miles) in this fundraising cancer ride, and I decided I'd like to do it in style. So please spread the word about my ride, and help me win a bike! The person who raises the most money on Thursday 7/19 gets a new bike! So please tell all your friends (and pimp on your blogs) my fundraising page. I think it would be neat to ride in this event on a new bike in the LiveStrong colors, so help a brutha fight the cancer! I will still ride one 3-mile lap for every $50, and provide photos, so you will also get a whole lot of amusement in watching me sweat my fat ass off the more money is raised. Please spread the word!

Here's the promo info -

JULY 19 FUNDRAISING PRIME!
THE BELL RINGS ON JULY 19 FOR FUNDRAISING PRIME AWARD

WHAT IN THE WORLD IS A FUNDRAISING PRIME AWARD?
Join the fun by participating in Prime Awards! Professional cycling races spice things up by throwing in a prime (pronounced "preem," for no good reason). A prime is an intermediate sprint during the race for some sort of prize. The announcer rings the bell as the pack comes through the start/finish area to let them know that a prime is coming up. On the next lap, the first rider over the line wins the prize. Fundraisers in the 24 Hours of Booty pack are invited to participate. The bell is about to ring!

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?
If you are registered for the 2007 24 Hours of Booty, you are a fundraiser in the 24 Hours of Booty pack and eligible to win the prime. Not registered yet? Simply go to www.24hoursofbooty.com and register now!

HOW DO I WIN?
Do as much online fundraising as you can all day on Thursday! The bell will ring for 24 Hours of Booty registrants at 12:00:00 AM on Thursday, July 19, 2007. You will have 24 hours to do as much ONLINE FUNDRAISING*** as you can. The "lap" will end at 11:59:59 PM on Thursday, July 19, 2007. The top fundraiser for this 24-hour period will win the prime award!

***ONLINE FUNDRAISING ONLY FOR THE PRIME. NO PLEDGES OR OFFLINE DONATIONS WILL BE COUNTED TOWARD THIS AWARD.

WHAT SHOULD I DO WITH THE PRIZE?
The Fundraising Prime Award prize can be a wonderful reward for yourself for your marvelous fundraising efforts! Or perhaps you will give it as a prize to one of your top donors. Or maybe you know a cancer survivor or cancer support person who needs a special lift? Whatever you decide, the Prime Award will be up for grabs once the clock starts ticking...

WHAT WILL I WIN?
