Below is an e-mail I received from Perimeter Bicycling. I couldn’t find more information on their website but as far as I know you can vote for any rider whether or not they finished.
It was a grueling race this year and your vote is needed to honor the dedication, discipline and valor of your favorite RAAM cyclist! Use your own criteria for any cyclist – solo or member of a team.
Please send an e-mail today to info@perimeterbicycling.com with your selection! In order to validate your vote please include your name, your e-mail and your address.
Votes will be counted on Friday, July 14, 2006, so please vote NOW!
All RAAM cyclists (solos and individual members of the relay teams) are eligible for this prestigious award. Amongst other accolades, the winner will receive:
- Round-Trip airfare (U.S only, sorry!) to participate in the 2006 First Magnus El Tour de Tucson XXIV presented by Diamond Ventures on Nov 18, including complimentary entry and 4-day hotel accommodations. El Tour is the largest Perimeter Bicycling event in the U.S. welcoming over 8000 participants from all over the world including Olympic & pro-level racers as well as families at all levels of cycling experience.
- Two complimentary tickets to the El Tour Dedication Dinner, where he/she will be introduced.
- Recognition at the El Tour Grand Cycling Awards Ceremony after the event on Saturday, November 19
Thank you for participating! Please feel free to pass this on to others you feel would like to have their voice heard!
If you’ve already voted – THANK YOU! You are part of the Sprit of RAAM
Please vote today!
Rob, I’m curious. Can anyone vote? And can it be for any cyclist who participated in RAAM, regardless of how they finished?
Jill, I can’t find any more information and what I posted is basically the e-mail I recived from them. As far as I know you can vote for any rider whether they won, barely finished, or didn’t even finish.
