About the Book (Excerpts & Info)

In 1992, college professor Dr. Harrison Hawke goes to England on a research project. Neither he nor the world knew that hidden in England was the only existing copy of a secret diary written by a U. S. Army officer in WW II-and that hired thugs would terrorize to get that diary. Believing Harrison was after the diary, the gang tortured him, attempting to expel him from the country. After the arrest of the gang's kingpen, and the arrival of Maria, life was nice. Until a friend's funeral. Vengeful, the professor vowed to single-handedly combat the gang for the diary, discover its mystique ... and somehow stay alive.

Cycling Circus 'Tour De Fat' Rolls into Its Hometown of Fort Collins: New Belgium Brewing Hits the Road with its Annual Ballyhoo of Bikes and Beer

Fort Collins, CO (PRWEB) September 19, 2006

Grab your cruiser bike and slip into your alter-ego -- New Belgiums philanthropic cycling circus, Tour de Fat, has hit the road for its seventh season! So get ready -- the roadshow series swings by home base of Fort Collins on Saturday, September 23, 2006. The Tour also hits an additional ten cities across the West while the entire crew travels on B100 biodiesel fuel.

The Tour de Fat brings together bike enthusiasts and bon vivants of every stripe in an all-out ballyhoo of bikes and beer. Costumes and decorated bikes are the rule as the participants come for a bike parade, good music and entertainment, then stay for the beer.

Amid the hoopla, Tour de Fat also raises money for local charities. It's free to come and play, but if you buy beer, all proceeds will go to Diamond Peaks Mountain Bike Patrol. Participants in the bike parade are encouraged to donate $ 5 to Bike Fort Collins.

Diamond Peaks Mountain Bike Patrol (DPMBP) is an all-volunteer non-profit organization whose goal is to promote responsible mountain biking and IMBA's (International Mountain Bicycling Association) Rules of the Trail. Last years profits were instrumental in funding training for new patrollers, educational outreach to the community, trail work, and preparation for National Take a Kid Mountain Biking Day, taking place on October 7 in Lory State Park (http://www.imba.com/resources/kids/). Bike Fort Collins is a local organization whose mission is to foster a bicycle-friendly culture and transportation system in Fort Collins through education and encouragement.

We wouldnt be able to exist and do all of the wonderful things we are doing without the support of New Belgium and the Tour de Fat, said Barb Allan, Director of Diamond Peaks Mountain Bike Patrol. We are truly lucky to work with them and look forward to another successful, eventful year.

Last year, the Fort Collins Tour de Fat attracted more than 1,200 Fat Tire Fanatics in the bike ride alone, the biggest parade in Tour de Fats history. The Tour FUNdraised $ 16,000 for Diamond Peaks Bike Patrol. In addition, Rocky Mountain Sustainable Living helped the Tour divert more than 75% of the total trash from the landfills.

Tour de Fat is a hair-raising, high-flying, death-defying show of incredible bike silliness and skill, said Chris Winn, Event Evangelist. You come out to the park, hang out with your friends, ride bikes and drink a little beer. At the end of the day, youve done your community some good just by having fun.
