    I'm there "Big D". Great idea for a fund raiser. I do love good beer. I do have a special request. See if you can get some Dogfish Head 120 minute IPA. I would pay extra for some. It's like gold in the beer world right now. It's harder to find than Osama Bin Laden.

    What is so special about 120? I've seen 60 and 90 on the shelves, both which are great beers.

    Also, it might be a good time to see if the new Jackalope brewery would want to join in. They are opening in the Gulch sometime in 2011 from what I hear.

    It's 18% abv. It takes 3 months to brew.Very expensive. Last week on the show Brew Masters. A batch went bad during the brewing process. The brewers at Dogfish head had to pour $500,000 worth of future profit down the drain. I guess that's why it's been hard to find lately.

    Not sure about the whole Jackalope deal. Not a lot of info out there about their beers or future Taproom. But I would love to try some of their brews.

    Those tags are so mean. Uzzi, Kelly who ever is doing em.. I would have ya know. Since my B-day I stated eating better and drinking less beer. And I've already have lost 5 lbs. I'm gonna be a lean mean fighting machine in 2011. But on Feb 18th I'm gonna get crunk on some good craft beerers.

    I'm not sure who tagged your name Jeffy, but I would have thought you felt that was a compliment seeing the great taste you have in all things beer related.....

    Great time and great turnout.

    I've gotta give my props to Hamilton Creek Brewery. They sure have a bunch of tasty beer.

    Thanks, Scott and company, for helping SORBA!

    Big THANKS to all those who organized and put this together.

    From my vantage point, it looked like a success

    About 100 talkative cyclists, all enjoying themselves and a few good brews. Good music too. Thanks to all that made this happen. Thanks to Land Rover of Nashville, what a great place to do this.

    Ditto! I really, really, enjoyed myself. (a bit too much) What an outstanding event! It looked like we raised a good bit of money too. The food, beer and conversation were awesome!

    Thankfully I have great friends who look out for me and offered me a ride home. (in their car) My plan to cycle there and back backfired after a few too many tasty brews on my part.

    Just curious, is it one entry per $10 donated, or one entry regardless of how much you donate.

    Darryl - Can you post a build list of DiSSent 29 SS? It might help persuade people into getting more tickets if they know what they are getting.

    I believe it's 1 entry per $10 donated. You should get a ticket for each $10 donation, so the more you donate the better your chances.

    (I could be wrong though, I'm 98.5% sure)
