FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


An Evening for World Bicycle Relief With Chris Horner
Presented by JW Flooring/ReSource Floors

San Diego, CA (October 11, 2010) - Well, it's time to let the cat out of the bag.

The plans are all set and it's time to let everyone know what's happening.

On Friday, November 5th 2010, SDC4WBR is proud and honored to be hosting a very special evening in support of World Bicycle Relief with very special guest, Chris Horner.

The first part of the evening will be a meet and greet with Mr. Horner at B&L's Sports Arena location (3603 Camino Del Rio West, San Diego, CA) and the second will be an intimate four course dinner for 40 guests at The Farmhouse Cafe (2121 Adams Ave., San Diego, CA).

The minimum donation to attend the meet and greet is $25 and $200 to attend the dinner.

For the meet & greet we will have door prizes, giveaways, light refreshments and an opportunity to meet, chat with and get your picture taken with a truly exceptional athlete while supporting an outstanding charity.

The dinner will be a very special affair with a silent auction, goodie bags for all attendees (courtesy of SRAM) and an incredible four-course rustic, French meal with wine pairings.

The dinner menu will be full of enticing and delicious dishes prepared by Chef Olivier Biouteau. Among other items the dinner menu will feature:

    *Savoy Spinach, Burratta cheese, Proscuitto, and Caramelized Fig Flatbread;
    *Lobster Tortellini Leek Fondue, with Coconut Scented Beurre Blanc
    * Truffle Crusted Black Cod, alongside Pumpkin & Chestnut Risotto
    * Braised Beef Cheeks, Celeriac Puree, with Pomme Dauphine

Chef Biouteau has also chosen wine pairings for each dish ensuring that  a good time will be had by all!

In addition to the outstanding menu, you will also have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to share a meal with Chris Horner, to hear his stories and tales of racing and Le Tour, and to literally lean over and ask him how he likes the food and wine. It truly is a remarkable opportunity to not only help World Bicycle Relief, but also spend an evening with a world-class athlete.

You'll also leave with a goodie bag from SRAM, have the opportunity to bid on limited edition SRAM components ridden and signed by Lance Armstrong and go home with a polaroid of you, Chris Horner and the Eiffel Tower*.

See you on November 5th!

*Not the actual Eiffel tower, but an Eiffel tower.
