In 2021 Jordan Poyer said out loud what I could not say for thirty three years. I am an alcoholic. That sentence reached me in the Czech Republic. I got sober, and in April I left Prague on my 2011 Vespa, Adina, to ride to Buffalo and say thank you in person. On September 18 I stood in Highmark Stadium for the home opener. Now I am riding back for week 8, Ravens at Buffalo, November 1. Over 7,500 miles so far, one broken brake drum in Wyoming, one trucker named Aaron who hauled us to Denver, zero drinks.

This shirt was not my idea. Susan Uhlein D'Aiutolo, a Bills fan from Rochester, drew it for me and posted it, and Bills Mafia took it from there. New York State, the red road, Adina with her flag, and GO BILLS in the smoke behind her because you asked for it. There is a second shirt coming too, the whole USA, for everyone who wanted the full ride on their chest. You wanted both, so you get both.

Every shirt is printed when you order it and ships worldwide. Order by October 20 and it is on you for the Ravens game. Part of every shirt goes to MIIN, an app for people who want to drink less, made by a guy who has been there.
