    Hey everyone.

    I helped with a benefit ride that we threw together for Mike Vincent, a LA rider, who was hit by a car in January. There was a benefit event in Portland for him in March, so I thought I would see if anyone was interested in helping out up in the NW.
    Anyhow... We are selling T-shirts with all of the proceeds going to Mike's large medical bill. If you are interested there is a donation paypal set up for Mike, and then you would e-mail your receipt to Olivia@asaent.com, with what size you would like. Shirts are $20 shipped.
    Right now, there are Med, and Large available, but we will be making more soon. They are all hand screened, in a few colors. Either gold, or pearl black print. The second run (other sizes) might be a different color.

    Some information on Mike, and his accident.

    This is the best pic of the shirt I have right now.... I'll post up another soon. Thanks for the support.

    the actual logo on the shirt.

    I'm not 100% if I'm going or not, but we ran out of smalls. We are screening more next week, so I can make sure you get one. Whisper me on LAfix'd, and we'll get you sorted out.

    I got a shirt from Upper Playground last time I was up there that said "I (picture of bike) PDX" and when I came back down here, no one had any idea that PDX stands for Portland. Pretty funny.

    jk.

    PDXJenn?
    Anyhow, all of the art was done by me, a son of Portland, so by supporting Mike, you are also supporting Portland and our love of charity (kind of, in a way...sort of). Haha.

    I was kidding hint the jk. I know darrin I'm just playin.

  1.  

    I'm from LA originally so I find it funny that people call Portland by PDX.

    If I were back in Silverlake and someone said, "Hey man, I'm from LAX", I would wonder why they were born in an airport.

    Very odd.

    Haha. Yeah, I saw the JK, but I still feel like I'm almost infringing (probably not the right word, but I'm sticking to it), so I thought I would add a bit more. I didn't mean for it to come off like I was coming back at you. Haha.

    Max is NOW!:

    I found that odd too. Bizzare. The only thing I can think of, is that there isn't any other good abbreviation for Portland. However, when someone says Po Po, in reference to police, and they aren't Portland Police, I find that funny as well.
    Weird shit. Haha.

    Oh, and for those that read about Mike's condition, we just got an update a few days ago, and chances are he might not be permanently blind. Detached retina I believe they called it. But there is a good chance his sight will be saved. Yay for doctors!
