Okay people,

I know a lot of us feel very fortunate to have this site available to us. and some of us would like to donate to help keep it alive but can't justify it for some reason or another. Myself included! I have donated in other ways besides the the little money ticker on the right hand side of the page. but some of us are just looking for another reason!

Well I have your reason!

I have in my possession about 18 BRAND NEW 1st quality HYDRAPAK
2 liter (2000 ml) bladders for camel back type drink systems complete with tubes and leak proof spigots

I had 20 but I kept two for myself :wink:

Starting July 1st, the first 18 people who donate $40.00 or more to the UHE will get one of these bladders (you have to be a non-advertised sponsor okay). Json will let me know who has donated and I will pm you for your address.

sorry valued members who are outside the lower 48, I can't justify the shipping charges. wish i could but... you understand...

These bladders go for about $20 bucks in the store. you are getting a great bargin! the bladders plus unlimited use of this site!


UHE will get 100% of this donation I will not be taking shipping charges out.

There is a very good chance that i will getting more of these badders in the near future. And if successful I will do it again...

Hope this helps.
 
y'all I did this without the permission of json, and after talking to my wife she thinks that i may be requesting to much of a donation. so I pose the question;

What should the donation be to qualify? Personally I thought $40 was a good number... what about $30 minimum... I don't really care but i hate to see these things go to waste. I would gladly spend the money for shipping charges if we could get $40/per for the site but at $20-25....people are doing that much anyway.

running a site like this, takes A LOT of time, and resources.

concensus?
 
$40.00 is nothing to sneeze at thats 5 US. gallons of gas :cursin: that price is coming. I think I am in
 
Yay $60 a barrel, we're doomed. You should start seeing more motorcycles on the streets and smaller cars too.

Back to the topic, I'll give money to this site because I can't live without Taffy's responses to my noobie's questions :)

Also do you prefill them? I know someone who can use some Bacardi in his.
 
The question was asked "where did i get these?"

at work, our order selectors use the packs to carry small recievers in that communicate verbally with a computerized order system. we buy the packs in bulk and keep the bladders. we usually donate the bladders to local search and rescue organizations. but I asked for the last batch to see if I could help the site. If not I will be donating them to our boy scout troop.

sounds like i have two takers.... so that means i have 16 left....
 
Risky,

I will definately call dibs on one. I was going to donate soon anyway, you are helping with the motivation!!!

Great! three down....


Just remember guys, starting July 1st. So friday a.m. get those check books out...

I thought setting a date like this would make it easier to deal with the "but I donated yesterday, does that count" crowd.
 
you truly awesome dude...

you sir are incredibly awesome. I appreciate the gesture a great deal. The site wouldn't be around without people like yourself.

I think $257.69 would be a fair price, does everyone agree? No? $256.75? Damn cheapskates ;)

Taffy will buy the leftovers. He already told me so.

thanks,

Put me down for one. I hope this might encourage more of these ideas in the future. I know I'll be thinking of something.

Thanks,

Bump.... I think i have 14 left....


Hey jason can you make it sticky until July 2nd when the supply runs out. I am positive people will be throwing money at this site :roll: or at least Taffy will have a big bill!

hey! if others think of ways to support our community we could off-set some costs for north america force rides! I am sure that a bit of this money could be used to ensure we all get to try some of bobzilla's chili!
 
Gimme money!

You sir, are ever the optimist :). I was sweating bullets 3 weeks into WildBill's engine-drive when the donations tapped out. I thought I was going to have to sell myself into indentured servitude to pick up the remainder of the tab :D

It's taken care of.

thanks,

Okay guys, I am going on vacation today and won't be back until the 5th. I expect that i will have a lot to ship out on the 6th.....
ohhh by the way....

I have sold the '02 so now i am looking for a possibly used 04-05 fe550E....so if you know of one let me know...

Edit: As of 7/5/05 at 11:30 Pacific time I see that 5 people have donated the $40 minimum. That means I have 13 hydrapaks left!

Can I get an IV needle to go along with the Hydropac? Don't laugh I still think it would be a good idea to have an IV station in addition to an Oxygen bar at the popular off road areas, especially in the summer! Once you hit 40 you start thinking about this kind of stuff :)
 
UMMMM.... Bobzilla....$100 8O so is this the way you make up for your riding ability :D

sorry bob... one per customer...

12 left.....
 
oui! oui! froggy..now you can have one too! PM me your address....

11 left....
 
HEY! shaggy4360!!!

I need your shipping address if you want one of these thingies sent to you....
 
Thanks nsman! PM your shipping address and I'll send you a bladder

Edit:

Hey nsman, I am sorry but i forgot that you are waaaayyyyyyy up there in nova scotia (i think). let me verify how much shipping is to where you are before I send one of these out. for some reason once a package crosses the border the price goes way up.... so let me know your address.


all who are expecting a hydrapac;
I decided last week that i would send the badders out once a week. that way i am not making daily trips to the UPS store. I sent out 6 today. I still need shaggy's address....
 
JOE USA YOU are the next Winner! :usa

send me your addresss via PM next shipment is Friday or saturday....
 
joe

sir, joe respectfully declined the bladder. Said he already has two, and has no need for another.

thanks,
