Calling all Cyclists, Music fans, & Friends!

Come to the "Mike Tague Rally and Ride"

January 29, 2006

Bryant Park, Lake Worth, Florida

This rally and ride is to benefit Mike Tague, cyclist, musician and friend
to many.  Mike, President and Director of CycleFest Inc., is severely ill
with lymphoma.	He is currently undergoing aggressive chemotherapy
treatments at Good Samaritan Hospital in West Palm Beach.  When the disease
was discovered, it had already progressed to the point that without
immediate aggressive treatment, Mike would not have survived.  He has been
hospitalized for nearly two months so far.

The irony of this is that as a director of CycleFest for the past seven
years Mike has worked to make CycleFest a major fundraiser for the Leukemia
and Lymphoma's Society Team in Training (TNT) program.	TNT riders from all
over the country, participating at CycleFest, have raised over 2.5 million
dollars for this great organization.  Now Mike needs your help in his own
battle with lymphoma. This is why Mike's friends are organizing the "Mike
Tague Rally and Ride" at Bryant Park on the Intracoastal Waterway in Lake
Worth, FL on Sunday, January 29.

The Event: The ride will be about 25 miles starting at 8:00AM at Bryant
Park, and returning to that point.  After the ride, around 10:00AM we will
have food, drinks, and live music including folk, bluegrass, and blues at
the park for everyone to enjoy. Mike has a broad and diverse group of
friends and this Rally is for everyone, not just cyclists, so bring your
friends and families.  We will also have a "Giant Card" for everyone to
sign and will be taking pictures of everyone at the rally to let Mike know
we are with him and his family in his fight against cancer.  There will
include a silent auction for great items such as week-long vacations,
surfboards, and bike stuff.  There will also be many smaller raffle items,
and other fun events such as a unicycle contest.

Directions to Bryant Park:  Bryant Park is in Lake Worth at the East end of
Lake Ave and the foot of the Intracostal Bridge. Look for the band shell
across from the Gulf Stream Hotel.  
 
We are encouraging everyone to help Mike with a financial donation.  As you
might imagine, the financial cost of months of hospitalization and
treatment is huge.  Mike has limited insurance and no income during this
tough time.  Our goal is to raise $10,000 for Mike to help him through this
difficult period.  We strongly encourage everyone to make a generous
donation, whether you are able to attend the Rally or not!  Please do not
delay and write a check today.	Let Mike and his family know that we are
all on their "team."  Mike has worked tirelessly to help others, now WE
need to help him.  Donations will also be accepted at the Rally on January
29.  SEE YOU THERE!!!!!
