September 2013 LSM Recap

Double Dub checking in!
Lots on the plate and the eyes and ears are abuzz. Coming to the end of our Community Photo Contest and the pressure got turned up on me. I'm in search of a way to draw our winners. Two more months, a possibility of two more entries! Don't sleep on this! You do know we're giving away a special "Double Dub Edition" Trikke T-12 Roadster, don't you?
The other new is that a couple of carvers have "Stepped Up" and have taken on the task of creating a Trikke Community Locator Map. It's far from being a simple task. So wish the guys good luck, cause we're going to need it.

What else is coming up? Holiday Season! Time to share your giving hearts. In planning your upcoming rides, how about partnering with a local charity or worthy cause? We all know of the big charities but how about something local for your communities. We'll be waiting to hear what y'all come up with.
Until then here's our recap of September. Thanks once again! Let's keep the LSM Movement going strong.

September LSM Community Photo Entries

Hi Double Dub checking in.
With two months left in the season long Community Contest, the excitement is beginning to build. I've been challenged to do more than draw the Ping Pong Balls out of a trash bag. Darn you, Roger Wildermuth of Emerald Coast Trikkers! Not sure how I'm going to pull this off. I've also been reminded to keep it simple and to keep it fair. Will do! Thanks for the reminder, Sharon Lee of First Coast Trikkers. Well needless to say but the pressure is also building on me. Another request came from Cindy Ward of Trikke DMV to broadcast the event , LIVE!!! Last Saturday of the Month Ride co-creator and LSM Movement sponsor/supporter, Andy Pliska of SouthBay Trikke Chimed in and gave the thumbs up. LIVE! it is! The date hasn't been set yet but expect the Drawing to happen before Christmas.
This month's entries fell short by 5 due to incomplete entry submissions. I offered a last call but got no replies. I'm not good in math but the odds look pretty good for frequent participants. So without further delay, Here are our September Entries.
