    Last year, we raised almost $5k towards this effort to feed hungry people in our area, which was pretty cool, via a crowd fundraising called FEEDing Saddles! (get it? get it?).

    And this led to providing about 10,000 meals!

    ALSO: it allowed us to feel good about not just being some Asshole in Lycra.

    We could each of us, in that moment, also be an Asshole in Lycra … who CARES

    SO Capital Area Food Bank asked us to resurrect Feeding Saddles for their 2022 food drive!!

    Can we get at least 50 of us to make a donation in any amount, and here’s the link:
    https://give.capitalareafoodbank.org/Feeding-Saddles-2022

    (Seriously any amount — this drive is as much about participation as it is about the total amount raised)

    Love, your favorite asshole in lycra (who cares),
    Rumi. (Sled Zeppelin Team 3)

    Thanks for doing this again rumipumi. I thought it was a great idea last year, and even better that you offered this opportunity again to us assholes in Lycra who care!

    We did it! We exceeded our goal of getting at least 50 assholes in lycra (who care) to chip in! We didn’t make it to $5k but we did great! Thank you to all of the generous assholes in lycra (who care) in our Freezing Saddles community! The page is still open if anyone else wants to chip in: https://give.capitalareafoodbank.org/campaign/feeding-saddles-2022-virtual-food-drive/c3958113ec8b5b3a437b9e463bd8a0172a0c226.jpg
