If you haven't visited the 'Nam page recently, we got a new treat in store for you. It's not 100% yet but you might like a sneak peak.

That Video is sweet! But my windows media player crapped out on my towards the end. Very cool though!
Who filmed it and who are some of the NEMBA "Stars" riding in it?
I tried to donate to the land fund the other night from home and it wasn't working (probably my crappy old PC) but it worked today!
I only wish I could have given at a higher level. I'll do my best to be a repeat donor though!

Gotta spread the word right!? :)

I said it before and I'll say it again, video is RAD! Everyone should thank Z , and send her some Advil for Christmas. Props go out to all the unseen players as well.
RIDE ON!

In answer to MikeT, IMBA will be putting up a page on our land purchase initiative very soon. In fact, it's very likely that they'll donate a bunch of money as a "challenge" to have folks outside New England make donations.
I can't overstate how important this initiative is-- it will be the singlemost largest investment ever done by mountain bikers to open space preservation. I also can't overstate how important it is for EVERYONE to help us reach our goal by making a donation. This fundraiser is well beyond NEMBA annual budget, and it's going to be people like you that make this dream a reality. I can almost taste success, but the fact of the matter is that we are still a LONG way off.
best,

Z produced that video! Awesome job Z........I think you should bring back that loungin in the pool avatar though ;D
Can't wait to get home and view the video again to catch the full clip...may inspire me to donate twice in one day.
Here's a valid question, so don't jump down my back Fattie ;D but where else can we post the message and the link to fellow mountain bikers?? We need to spread the word and that video is an excellent way to draw people in and see what they would be contributing to preserving/purchasing.

Very valid. YES by all means post the link to the Save NAM page far and wide. Tell as many people as you can and get them to become "co-owners" of Vietnam by joining Nemba if they're not already members, and donating to the LPF!
The LPF Committee does ask that the page url be posted, NOT the movie by itself, as going through the donation page gives more info and more prompts to drop coin.
PS I don't really care how many questions you ask, it's "TouchyTodd" or as I may start to call him "TheDetonantor" who you gotta watch out for! ;)
(I was just playin along with everyone else getting down on the McAskalot thing!)
Peace out.

It was posted to Rage this afternoon, as well as TNR, and my own riding group's yahoo group Bikeclub! The word is getting out-this is very cool!
