Ride For the Son

Last weekend, we packed up the kids and headed to Montrose, PA to the Christian Motorcycle Association State Rally. For the past few years my husband has been a member of our local CMA chapter.  This year, they asked him to conduct a few presentation on “group riding” and the “seasoned rider” at the rally for motorcyclist attending.

My husband became a motorcycle safety coach about five years ago, and through the state of Pennsylvania has been teaching beginning and seasonal riders how to be safe out on the roads.

This was our first year at the CMA State Rally.

For those of you who are not familiar with CMA. The mission of CMA (Christian Motorcycle Association) is to inspire their leaders and members to be the most organized, advanced, equipped, financially stable organization, full of integrity in the motorcycling industry and the Kingdom of God.

Each year the CMA holds a fundraiser known as “The Ride For the Son”. The proceeds from this charity ride go to three partnering ministries: Jesus Film Project, Missionary Ventures, and Open Doors. I can tell you that one of these missiontries helps provides motorcycles to pastors all over the world.

We spent last weekend in an air conditioned RV on a campsite near the rally. I know, not exactly roughing it. We even brought our television and dvd player! (mostly for my husband’s presentation). The weekend consisted of a talent show, good music, a great speaker, chilli cook off, and tons upon tons of motorcycles.

Here’s just a few in the line up amongst the hundreds that attended this year’s rally.

YUM!

Now these are my kind of motorcycles!

Stay tuned, on Monday I’ll reveal to you my favorite, and most unusual motorcycle, I’ve ever seen.

Until then, I’ve got to get writing!
