Montauk We Hope
Non-notable bike race, no sources, nothing at Google news, only 32 Google hits, and a large number of those hits appear to be just the string of characters "Montauk We Hope" in a list of SEO keywords. Seems more like an advertising gimmick for Tritec Real Estate Co. Corvus cornix 21:04, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete. Non-notable bike ride/fundraiser.  Big chunks of the article are a copyvio from .  Total ridership appears to be in the ~300 range, certainly not notable unless there has been a disproportionate amount of media coverage.  bikeable (talk) 00:05, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete as not notable. Verifiably untrue summary statement, this is a small ride.  I'll get the cites. Bearian 21:58, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
 * The Hudson Ride is the fastest growing bike ride and the Bike New York (a/k/a 5 Boro Bike Ride)  is much larger than the Montauk We Hope with 1,200 rides every year. Even the AIDS Ride is bigger than this and growing faster. .  This is just plain wrong, and should be stricken from WP. Bearian 22:07, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I have added verify and hoax tags to the article. Bearian 22:11, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
