SUPER huge thanks to all of the listeners who called in! We raised nearly $1,000 in one hour! That's totally a record for us and it means a lot to Sara and I. Timo, one of our guests, offered to throw $10 on top of every contribution that came in and he really got dinged - for the love of KBOO. Way to go, bikey listeners, and thanks for your contributions. Cyclists voices are stronger because of your support.

It was a great honor to be on the Bike Show again and the Trash Mountain Boys had a lot of fun. Thank you Ayleen, Sara, and KBOO! And thanks to Chris for making the podcast available so all our layabout fans who can't get up on time can listen!
I have to give props to TMBoy Wes, who pitched in for half of the "bump-up" - there were 16 pledges in one hour.
He also agreed to help me with the other incentive - any KBOO Bike Show pledgers who want it will get a free patch kit, and Wes or I will show them how to fix their tube. You too can say, "I used to get annoyed but now I'm over it."
