Pony up punks

The following is from Renee's site. I will put in $25. Can the rest of you commit to a few clams? Maybe we can hit a $100 from the fine viewers of Crossmadness. If you commit, I'll pay it and collect from you later.

Support Tristan's trip to CX Worlds

Being selected to represent the United States at the Cyclocross World Championships in Hooglede-gits, Belgium is a huge honor for Wisconsin racer Tristan Schouten. However, that honor comes with a $1500 price tag. Let's show Tristan that Wisconsin supports him by helping defray those costs.

There are many ways you can help Tristan. You can donate directly to Tristan at his Paypal account via credit card This is very fast, easy and secure. He has an account set up and you can send a donation tthrough your own paypal account if you have one to Tschouten@gmail.com Check Tristan's blog for the most current info on donating.

Madcross.org will also be helping to raise funds for Tristan a number of ways. You can purchase a 2007 Cyclocross calendar, poster or other item from the MadCross store and all profits will go directly to Tristan. You can also make a donation and receive a 2006 Wisconsin Cyclocross DVD with all funds donated going directly to Tristan.

Stay tuned for other information on fundraising.
