Questions
Everything people ask.
The money
- Do I have to pay now?
- No. You pledge now and settle up in January 2028, one email, one link. No card until then.
- What does a pledge cost?
- You pick. At 1¢ a mile it’s $100 at 10,000 miles; at 5¢ it’s $500. Or name a flat number, any size. You can cap it, too. Same deal.
- Where does the money go?
- Direct to the org you picked, 100% of it. Everyone on the board chooses their own. I don’t keep a cent.
- Does any of it go to Robert?
- No. Not a dollar, not for the bike, not for the kit. The money never passes through me.
- How do I pay, and to whom?
- In January 2028 you get one email with the final miles, your number, and a link to give straight to the org you picked.
- Is it tax deductible?
- You give directly to the org, so it works the way any gift to them does. They send the receipt.
- What if you don’t make 10,000?
- You pay for the miles I rode. Every one of them is on Strava, and the count on this page updates within the hour.
- What if you ride more than 10,000?
- It keeps going. A per-mile pledge counts every mile I ride in 2027, unless you set a cap. A flat pledge stays flat.
- Can I change or cancel my pledge?
- Yes, any time before the year ends. Send the form again with the same name and I’ll keep the latest, or reply to any mile update.
- Can a team or a company pledge?
- Yes. One name on the board, any amount. If you want a logo on the kit, reply to a mile update and we’ll talk.
The ride
- Can I ride with you?
- Yes. Six dates on the 2027 calendar so far, and every ride in the directory is open to anyone.
- What are ride days?
- The day before each of my six 2027 events, an easy open ride in that town for anyone on the board. No-drop, no sign-up fee. Where and when goes out by email a few weeks ahead.
- Do I have to be queer to be part of this?
- No. Anyone can pledge, anyone can ride. The money goes to queer-serving orgs. That’s the point.
- Can I change my pick?
- Any time before December 31, 2027. Come back to this page; your pick is remembered in your browser.
