See ya later Bobby White

Said goodbye this past Monday to the son of a dear friend JOSEY WALES.
Bobby was an awesome young man.  Didn't take long at the funeral to realize he touched a lot of people and will be greatly missed.  He even rode with us a couple times and turned out to be pretty good riding in a tight group.  His family is some of the most kind and friendly people you would ever want to meet.  Rock solid Christians and Bikers to the core.  We shall keep them in our prayers as they grieve their great loss.  Blessings and Peace to Kenny, Debbie and Billy. We loved Bobby too.. and will all miss him very much.

I sent this quote to Kenny when I first heard the news:

"Now remember, when things look bad and it looks like you're not gonna make it, then you gotta get mean. I mean plumb, mad-dog mean. 'Cause if you lose your head and you give up then you neither live nor win. That's just the way it is."

10th ANNUAL SUFFOLK SWAMP ROAR

Blast it!!!!
The SWAMP ROAR in Suffolk is the same weekend as our National Meeting.
Bummer.. I was really looking forward to that ride.
OK.. so the Christian Soldiers will be out of town on a camping trip weekend.. but I encourage all of you that have bikes - go ride the Swamp Roar.. it's fun and there are tons of vendors and bikes and food, etc.
Be safe out there.. and watch for cars cutting into the line.

Our Clubhouse - Ministryhouse!!!

Here's a quick picture of our clubhouse.  

Woof.. it sure looks like we need to lay-hands on it!

Technically, we're not a motorcycle club, we're a motorcycle MINISTRY.. so this is better referred to as our Ministryhouse... not Clubhouse.  LOL

It's got a long way to go.. but does the job.  Last night at the meeting we put on a citronella candle and had a great bible discussion and also talked logistics about the upcoming National Meeting / Campout!!!

2011 National Meeting/ Camping Trip

OK guys.. start getting your bikes all gassed up and your camping gear ready!
It's time again for our Annual National Meeting - And this year it is at Kerr Lake.

We rode down and went camping at Kerr Lake before and had a great time... so we reserved the same group campsite.

Families are welcome. (But not in the actual National meeting).

We are to arrive on the Saturday 8th of October.  Our meeting will be sometime Saturday evening.  We will be staying the night in tents, and then departing AFTER a short church service on Sunday Morning.  We have the site until 3PM so perhaps we eat lunch before we break camp... we'll see.

It's going to be a great time.. so plan accordingly.
Contact ICEMAN with questions and concerns.

Ride for the Chili

Chapter 1 is going for a ride.
We are kickstands up at 9AM on Saturday 6th of August.
Meet at ICEMAN'S house for some coffee at 8:30AM - gassed up and ready to roll.
We're rolling down together to see DJ and the others at Chapter2, and to spend the weekend with them.

We're gunna bring all the fixins for a burger cookout, shoot some guns,  eat a bunch of chili, watch a movie (Blazing Saddles?) and stay up late talkin' about all the fun stuff going on in our
lives.

On Sunday  we will ride back to Virginia after church.  We may even eat lunch before we leave.. we'll see.

So.. check/change your oil, gas up your bike and get ready for a fun ride and good fellowship with
the guys of Chapter 2.  Sure hope POBOY is feeling well enough to ride after his truck wreck.
 Keep praying for his recovery.. he's still hurtin' quite a bit.

More details as the time gets closer.
