Pine-Sol rolls out the red carpet...

Pine-Sol rolled out the pink carpet for us in Oakland. http://picasaweb.google.com/SunnyTheDiva/PineSolSalutesDivasForACure

It was a wonderful feeling to roll into Oakland and be greeted by the Clorox Corporation and Pine-Sol, along with family and friends. Pine-Sol presented us with a check for $10,000.00, and a full-page feature in the October edition of Essence Magazine. Pine-Sol has also agreed to donate 21 mammograms to an organization of our choice right here in our community!



We arrived at approximately 6:00 PM and didn't have time to stop to clean off the road-dirt, freshen-up or change clothes. We are sun burnt, sore and exhausted but happy. I officially road from Oakland to Maryland and back to Oakland making numerous fundraising stops along the way and logging in 6969 miles.

No and I'm not quite finished. Aj Jemison currently lives in Los Angeles road back with me to Oakland for the Pine-Sol presentation and I will ride with her half-way back to Los Angeles on August 12, 2007. I don't think I will ride much for a few weeks. My butt need a break!

We would like to send a special thanks to Carolyn Jones at http://www.privacywear.com/ who started our 2007 Divas For A Cure Cross-Country Breast Cancer Motorcycle Run with a generous donation of $25,000.00, along with giving us so much other support behind the scenes.

T.C. Costley - I love you! To the men and women in the National Association of Buffalo Soldiers & Troopers Motorcycle Club (My Motorcycle Family) you are truly wonderful. This journey would not have been possible without you escorting us along the way and your love and support of this cause. Thank you to my other M/C family - The Buffalo Soldiers Motorcycle Club of California for kicking this event off "LA Style". Yes, and leave it to Harley-Davidson to add a little splash of Hollywood by arranging a homecoming ride along with Tyson Beckford.

There were so many other motorcycle clubs, organizations, family and friends (Senator Judy Eason-McIntyre, Martha Vaughn, Alberta Jones, Rickey Gadson, Sugar Bear, Red - Choppers M/C, Road Divas of Distinction M/C of Maryland, Lady's of Harley - Roanoke, Most Wanted M/C, Iron Souls M/C, East Bay Dragons M/C, Blue Flames M/C, Rising Sons M/C, Rare Breed M/C, The Black Biker Magazine, The Page-Turner Network, PDS San Francisco, AMCORP, V100 in Los Angeles, KJMZ in Tulsa) - - too many to name but thank you to everyone who supported us on our journey. We hope that we made a difference in the lives of the people we met along the way.

Finally, the Divas (Jan Emanuel, Aj Jemison, Victoria Murphy and Claudia Lile) - - we did it!!!!

Peace and Blessings,
