HoTeL ZED Kit Auction for Wounded Warriors

Looking to be the Coolest Kid on 2 wheels in the Coolest Kit?
Mandy and Geoff from HoTeL ZED have graciously donated a complete set of Hotel Zed bike kit (jersey & shorts) to Wounded Warriors Bike Ride! If you bid the most while the auction is open you will get the kit in your size when the next order is made, you will be helping out some real heroes via Wounded Warriors and you will get the tax receipt for your full donation as well.
How it works: the auction will be open until this Thursday, June 4th at 8:00pm. Only the highest bidder (the winner) must donate. That means like any auction you will only "have to pay" if you win.
But wait there's More! A Cannondale Nitro Floor Pump--donated by Fort St Cycle is also part of this auction on the same package. That way you will be able to pump up your tires and ride every day in your new kit.
Thanks again Mandy & Geoff!! And Don, manager Fort St Cycle.
Here is my home page for the ride -

Well, I've always wanted to be a big spender at an online auction so I will bid $275.
And if you'd like to learn more about my persistence in one-upmanship, just ask Alan.

Well I have no desire to be a big spender or care about one-upmanship. What I do care about is raising funds for a great cause. Wounded Warriors are committed to ensuring they provide a diverse set of programs and services for wounded soldiers and their families and that's why I'm upping the ante to $350
Honour the Fallen, Help the Living, Keep on Bidding.........

OK while all you folks are out riding I will quietly up the bid to $375.
I will probably buy some cool arm warmers from Missing Link (on line) to go with my kit.

We have 24hrs to go.
The winning bid will get all of the above and I will also throw in (assuming Mandy & Geoff will sell me a pair) those cool arm warmers as well.
Thanks folks!

Ok I'm done at $800 whoever bids $801 or more should have a pretty good chance of picking some cool gear and supporting a great cause. I will still donate the $800. Let's crank it up in the last few hours to raise more than $1,600+

OK so Richard guarantees he will donate $800--without any kit. Unbelievable -- thank you!!
If anyone is even remotely interested here is what you will also get:
- a vest to match the above (I will purchase) and a size Med Wounded Warriors souvenir jersey mailed to me yesterday.
This (somewhat crazy) auction closes tonight at 8:00pm.
Also I have well surpassed the required funding amount long ago--this is purely for Wounded Warriors.
