Bill Murar on a CSC 150 in the Lake Erie Loop!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

That’s my good buddy Bill in the photo above, at speed, riding the Lake Erie Loop, a 600-mile scooter endurance rally.\u00a0 I first met Bill shortly after starting the CSC blog.\u00a0 Bill is a retired firefighter who is a serious Iron Butt rider, and he wanted a CSC scooter to ride in the Lake Erie endurance event back in those days. \u00a0 We were only too happy to oblige.<\/p>\n

Yesterday, I received a nice note from Bill, and I want to share it with you…<\/p>\n

I’ve just registered for the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride, a fundraising motorcycle ride to help beat prostate cancer. You’re receiving this because you happen to be in my phone directory and because you know what a fanatic I am about riding. This year’s ride is on September 30th and, ironically, my birthday is on September 29th. Now, I know you were going to send me some kind of gift (nudge nudge, hint hint), but in lieu of that, I’d prefer that you make a nominal donation in my name for this great cause. Or, better yet, join me on the ride. To do either (or both) go to www.gentlemansride.com\/fundraiser\/WilliamMurar227980<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Thanks,<\/em>
\nRide Aware,<\/em>

Bill, that’s awesome!\u00a0 Thanks for writing and we’re only too happy to post your request here on the ExNotes blog. \u00a0 How about it, folks…let’s help Bill in this most noble cause!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
