Hey there, fellow bike enthusiasts and kind-hearted folks,

If you don't know me, I am Amanda Bligh, a regular volunteer at Bike Not Bombs. As a volunteer, not only do I get to unleash my inner engineering geek, but I also learn the ins and outs of bike repair and refurbishment. It's like exercising my brain and my love for all things two-wheeled!

Now, hold on tight because I'm taking on a monumental challenge: a 50-mile bike ride! Yep, you heard it right. I'll be pushing myself to the limits, pedaling through wind, hills, and probably a few questionable bike lanes. (THAT'S A FACT!) And here's the twist – I'm usually a mountain biker, navigating rough terrains and conquering trails that would make most bikes tremble! But getting out of the woods is worth it because I'm doing it for Bike Not Bombs!

The organization not only advocates for cycling as an eco-friendly alternative but also works tirelessly to create a more equitable world by providing bicycles and fostering cycling communities both locally and globally. Talk about putting the "cycle" in "recycle"!

Here's where you come in. I need your support to make this ride count. By making a donation, no matter how big or small, you'll be directly contributing to Bike Not Bombs' incredible initiatives. Together, we can help more people get on two wheels, reduce carbon emissions, and have a wheel-y great time doing it!

So, let's put the pedal to the metal and make a wheel difference. Don't worry; you don't have to break a sweat like I will. Just click that donate button and let the good vibes flow!

Thank you for joining me on this adventure. Together, we'll ride toward a brighter, bike-filled future!

Sincerely,

Amanda [with significant contribution, especially the jokes, from Chat GTP]
