May 07, 2007
Despite Inclement Weather, Racing 2 Save Lives Surpasses Fund-Raising Record at Miller Motorsports ParkTOOELE VALLEY, UTAH — Braving cold, wet and blustery weather, motorcycle enthusiasts from all over North America converged on Miller Motorsports Park this past weekend to ride the world-class road racing circuit in a fund-raising event organized by Racing 2 Save Lives (R2SL). And despite the inclement weather, R2SL managed to increase both the number of participants and their fund-raising results, collecting $70,000 to donate to children’s charities in Utah and Colorado.
R2SL is a Colorado-based, 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to supporting children's charities by raising awareness, involvement and capital within the motorcycle racing community through donations, corporate sponsorship and fund-raising events. All profits generated by R2SL are distributed among carefully selected organizations that have a significant impact on the lives of children in need and their families, split equally between charitable organizations in Utah and Colorado.

This group has another event coming up in August. They use the money mainly for charities local to their area - check out their website for more information about which ones.
If you're a motorcycle enthusiast this just might be your ticket to giving . . .
