Would you pay $10,000 to ride with Lance?

That's the minimum bid on eBay to take part in a MTB ride with Mr.
Armstrong. The ride (in Los Angeles) is limited to 25 participants.

If I were a rich, master fattie with the most tricked out rig possible, and
enough money that $10,000 was more like $100 to most people... ya, I'd pay
it.

Right now, that's half my annual. My bike is 14 years old, and I'm saving
money to buy a decent floor pump. So, I think I'll pass.

It's all relative.

I can't see one, let alone 25, folks paying that kind of cash to ride with
Lance.

As a cancer surviver who just came in second at a local MTB race and knowing
the money would go to charity, yes I would. That is if I had it to spend.
College for my own kids is tops this year.

According to the Chicago Tribune, he only charged $5K for a similar ride
in Chicago.

If the $$$ goes to his cancer charity and is directed towards research,
that's not a bad deal. You get the tax deduction, you contribute to a
good cause, and you get the chance to drop him on a ride.

Well, the money is going to charity, I'm sure. Plus lots of people have that
kind of change, and Lance is an icon. I'm sure they will meet capacity.

Is a fund raiser for charity?

If it is, I'll bet they fill it, especially in LA.

Lots of people would. Just like a fantasy baseball camp, but with a better
result for the money spent.

If I had that disposable, I might.
Then again, if I had that much disposable, I'd also go to Russia, and fly
supersonic. www.extremeadventures.com
