    Hello Everyone

    My next door neighbor lost his leg in a motorcycle accide 23 years ago. He did not let that stop him from riding. He loves life and he loves his Harley. The man has not let the loss of his leg from doing anything that he wants. My daughter got a new video camera. She was outside in the yard learning how to use it. He requested that she make him a video of him and his beloved Harley. I would like everyone to celebrate his joy in riding his motorcycle and his strength of will to do what he loves the most.

    Super!

    With the wind in your face, may you be
    blessed and graced with the Lord at your side, in safety
    as you ride.
    Be kept safe as you travel and your bike be
    secure.
    Like on Eagle's wings uplifted to soar.
    May the wind of Ezekiel's chariot carry you
    across the land,
    as you ride with pride, be blessed and abide
    with God ever present, to be at your side.

    I can't take credit for it. A priest gave it as a biker blessing during the Americade Bike Week. I thought it was special. I wish I could remember his name to issue credit.
