15 Phil Wood hubsets--another Big fix joint

Brent at Phil Wood and I have cooked up another promotion---NOT a raffle, and yes all donations are tax-deductible.
See: www.active.com/donate/fixhistio/philwood
HTML Code:
www.active.com/donate/fixhistio/philwood
(hope one of these links work)

200 X $50 donations (you may enter more than once, in multiples of 50)

Who needs 15 hubsets---of your choice, no custom colors, otherwise, ANY hubsets you desire---if they last forever?
Shop owners, wheel builders, messenger companies to give as Xmas bonuses to their worthy employees, etc.
Sell 'em on E-bay, we don't care, altho you should keep one pair at least to enjoy.

Thanks to forum members for tolerating me plugging this ride, but it is for my daughter's illness, and i do ride fixed---double century this saturday in San Jose, join us!

What would maybe be a nice thing to do is for the winner to give whoever gave $50 first shot at the extra hub sets... don't know if there is a way to track who gave what though.

I don't get it.

If you are not raffling off the hubs, how are you going to pick who wins?

I don't think he can legally call it a raffle.

It is legit, one lucky "donater" will get to pick 15 Phil Hubsets of his/her choice.

The cause is more than worthy, there are a lot of terrible diseases etc out there. But one that targets kids and young adults and has no known cure deserves attention.
In case anyone missed it, these riders are riding from Davis CA to West Newton MA fixed all the way. That feat alone is worth a donation IMHO as if the good cause isn't enough.

13 donations and counting--no, it is not a raffle, but a promotion.
Like if you join adventure cycling, every member is automatically eligible to "receive" not WIN, a co-Motion touring bike, just for renewing your membership this year. So, if you donate to the phiil wood donation page, you are automatically eligible to "possibly own" 15 hubsets of your choice from PW.
Sorry for semantics, keeps the FCC at bay.
All you broke forum members---pool yr ducats---5 of you could afford 10 bucks each, and split the hubs--3 sets each, if you are lucky!

Poor attempt at humor. I ride bikes and motos and hate the word donor...hence the quotes.
