Heading out for longest trip on the bike

This weekend I am attending a men's event with a ministry, Marked Men for Christ. I have been looking forward to this weekend for sometime.

First the President is a "spiritual son" of mine. Steve Spicer and I have been meeting and growing for about 3 years. A common friend pulled us together at a meeting and said, "You two guys need to meet" and so we did and we did again. Steve is one of the warriors. he spends a good part of his life in his "tent making" ministry for a large corporation. Then he pours out his life for other men as the lead for Marked Men for Christ.

Now to some other good stuff. I am taking my bike down to the camp. It is only about 140 miles but I am excited. I will be honest. I have a ride to go in a carpool but this is something I really wanted to do. This morning the weather is incredible and my wife, Billie is so supportive. I think part of that is her growing confidence. we rode together last night for a couple of hours.

This is my longest trip to date on the bike.

So off I will head in a few hours on our motorcycle, with backpack and sleeping bag strapped on like some of those other guys you see on the highway.

By the way you can check out Marked Men for Christ at: http://www.markedmenforchrist.org/

If you go to their "about us" tab and then to Board of Directors you will see a bio of Steve "Spice" Spicer.

Looking forward to a great weekend.

So I guess I will see you on the rode or catch you next week.
