Tour of the Gila News

We have some exciting news to share. New Mexico State Senator Gabriel Ramos and New Mexico Lt. Governor Howie Morales are working to secure state dollars to help fund the Tour of the Gila Bicycle Race. This will be a great boost to our event, to our local economy and to our state’s economy, however we need your help. Please copy and paste the message below and then email it to the New Mexico State Senators listed below. We have also added phone numbers for each of the State Senators so you can call them if you wish. It is important that they hear from you. Your voice is what will help us get this financial assistance. Please call or send an email to these State Senators ASAP.

Thank you,

MESSAGE:

Thank you for accepting this email as a letter of support for the annual TOUR OF THE GILA bicycle races in Silver City. This event is a great event, but with your help and financial assistance it can grow even bigger and better. I understand Senator Gabe Ramos has authored a bill to help Tour of the Gila with financial aid. This is a bill that is also being championed by Lt. Governor Howie Morales. Both men have seen first-hand the past successes of the Tour of the Gila… and they are quite aware that the Tour of the Gila has a great opportunity to grow and become an even more dominant race in the national bicycle racing community. Tour of the Gila is already one of the very best bicycle races in the United States of America. With your help we know it will climb to even higher heights. Please give your support to Senator Ramos’ bill, SB 481.

Sincerely,
