Revival Tent Bullhead City

Here are some of the Christian Biker ministries involved at the Laughlin River Run

Every year at the River Run we take an afternoon and go over to this old age home. We have lunch with the folks and take the opportunity to share our faith with anyone who will listen. Afterwards the folks come out and sit on the bikes for some pics. They get all jazzed up and put on temporary tattoos and biker attire for the event. It is my favorite part of the weekend.

2008 Laughlin River Run

Here is Pops. A "Circuit Rider" out of Texas, singing some Christian songs at Laughlin Bike Rally.

Al and Fern Come to Vegas Finally!

About five days after I returned to Vegas, Al and Fernanda came to Vegas for a visit. This time he borrowed my second bike and we went touring California for a couple of days. San Diego, L.A.. We also hit the Laughlin River Run.

Here we are in the Grand Canyon. We took a helicopter down to the bottom and hopped on this boat down the Colorado River. We also went on that new Skywalk. Save your money the skywalk wasn't that exciting and it was overpriced at $30 for a five minute walk. The Chopper boatride were fun though.

While in Cali, I went into a prison ministry called Bill Glass Weekend of Champions. All together we have about 400 volunteers to go into the prisons. Bikers rode their bikes right into the yards of various prisons. Over 2500 people came to know Christ that weekend. Praise God!

Al and Fern toured L.A. while I went to Fresno Prisons.

Back to Vegas

Here is a pic of some of the 150 homeless people we feed every Friday in Vegas. There are about 10,000 homeless people in Vegas.

North Fork Long Island

We put the bikes on a ferry to the North Fork. We went to have some steaks at "The Elbow Room"

Montauk Light House

Al and Barry are founding members of an M/C called 'Sacred Steel'

Al Buys A Second Bike

Al bought the 2000 Roadking you see in the foreground from Barry who is the guy on the left.

After Keystone I flew out to NY for some spring riding. We affectionately call the new scooter "five oh". It is a police edition. Here we all are taking a ride out to Montauk. We stopped at our favorite diner in Babylon, Glen's Dinette.

Big Snow at Keystone

Me and Johnny got caught in a mogul field deep heavy powder. I was not in shape to be boarding at 12000 feet. I was exhausted most of the days. Next year I hit the gym for six months before the trip!

Beautiful sandstone

Antelope Canyon

After Colorado we stopped at this slot canyon right outside Page, AZ

Wood and arch

Artsy Arch with wood in foreground

Arches National Park

On our way to Colorado to go snowboarding at Keystone, we stopped at Arches National Park. Notice how big this arch is compared to the person in the foreground.

Ain't Happenin'

I was feeling a little saucy and tried to make it up this ledge.

Logandale

Did some serious wheelin' in logandale

Arizona Strip

I took Stumpy to the AZ Strip. After about 6 hrs of driving through mud we ended up at to secluded section of the Grand Canyon

After a four day course I learned that rappeling is not one of my strong points.

Rappeling Course at Front Sight

Thats me. Sorry about the dirt on the lens.

Back To Vegas New Years Day 2008

On the first of the year we do a traditional Jericho Run. We ride around the city of Las Vegas praying for the walls of unbelief to fall down.We had a good turnout of about 25 bikes. It was pretty chilly too.

NYC Hog Christmas Party

I went to NY for the holidays. Here is Al receiving superduper biker award at the HOG event.

Van Full of Toys

Church Toy Run!

Me and brother Greg cooking up a storm for over 100 people at Brady's 2008 Church Toy Run.

A bunch of clubs showed up. A bunch of underpriviliged kids got a load of toys. A great event.

Crash at the toy run

These two bikes got into a crash. No serious injuries. One of the bikes was a custom.

It's been awhile June 10, 2008

IronCrossmen Toy Run December 15,2007.

We collected some toys for some kids. I brought a skateboard!

Staging lane

Here is the staging lane where the drag bikes line up to get ready to race. We had a tent set up with cold drinks and coffee right near here.

I did about seven bike blessings

This guy's estimated time was 11.6 seconds for the quarter mile. If he finishes in 11.59, he is disqualified. These guys know their quater mile times to the hundreth of a second. Amazing!

ET Race

Here me and Glenn take the estimated times of the racers. In the ET class, each racer states his estimated time to finish the quarter mile.

The starting tree is then adjusted so both bikes are even. In other words the slower bike starts first.

This way a regular gas bike can race against an alcohol bike. Some bikes get a one or two second head start. The only catch is if the racer finishes faster than his estimated time he is disqualified.

These times are accurate to the thousanths of a second.
