Dear Delegation and Guests:

Lt,. Governor Mongiardo has asked me to issue the invitation below to the delegation and guests, and I encourage your participation so we have a great showing from Kentucky! Also, be advised that the suggested attire for all Kentucky events in Denver is business CASUAL.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Moore, Chair

TO: DNC Kentucky Delegates

FROM: Lt. Gov. Daniel Mongiardo

SUBJECT: Join me for a bike ride in Denver!

As you may have read, the 2008 Democratic National Convention aspires to be the most environmentally friendly in history. I hope you?my fellow Kentucky delegates?will join me to help make that vision a reality.

A partnership between Bikes Belong?a pro-bicycle organization?and Louisville-based Humana Inc. has provided 1,000 bicycles that are available at the convention for free, short-term use through a unique, innovative program called Freewheelin?. These Freewheelin? stations will be set up all around Denver for convention participant use.

On Wednesday, August 27, I will be leading a ride from a Freewheelin? station near the Hilton Garden Inn to our delegate lunch meeting at the Samba Room Restaurant. Let's put our best pedal forward and do something good for our health and the environment. As delegates from the Bluegrass state, let's be physically fit and show our greener side by using these bikes as an alternate form of transportation. Please see the details below and add this to your itinerary.

Thanks for your support.

WHEN: Wednesday, Aug. 27 - 11:00 a.m. MDT

WHERE: Meet at the Freewheelin? station at 14th and Stout in downtown Denver - just a block and half from the Hilton Garden Inn where many of you are staying (there will be someone at the Hilton to direct you). We will ride the short distance (about a half mile) to the Samba Room Restaurant, where the Kentucky delegation will have lunch at 11:30 a.m.

PRE-REGISTER: For more about the program, click here. Follow the directions to "reserve your bike today." I encourage you to register in advance. It just takes a minute or two, and that way, you can jump on a bike without waiting. Lastly, be sure to bring your driver's license and a credit card. You'll need those at the bike station. (The credit card is just to ensure the bikes are returned safe and sound. As long as you drop off your bike, your card will not be charged.)--
