More than Gold,..it's a Ride to Restore Life...

My stay here at the end of the road in Key West was short and sweet. Riding down this highway is a trip to say the least. You just can't imagine how a road can just go on and on out to sea. In Key West you've tipped into the Ocean; it's where the Gulf and the Atlantic meet...Amazing!

I really enjoyed diving on the Vandenberg. She’s a 500-feet long and sits at 140-feet of warm water. The visibility was crystal clear today and there was barely any current. The crew at Subtropic Dive Center did a great job helping us to explore this new artificial reef. An incredible day.

As you should know by now, I came down here to participate in the Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge. Tonight was the pre-race meeting with Chief Jim Red Cloud. He called upon us for this challenge and told us why. The Lakota people of Pine Ridge, SD, are a people in struggle. Chief Jim is pulling us in from all over the Country to ride with him to sacred places during the race to collect the souls of the dead, and bring them to the Lakotas to help fix the Broken Wheel of Life. The souls are those of warriors from battles lost long ago to the children and women killed during those battles. Bringing the un-rested souls home to their people, will restore hope to their nation and ensure their future here on earth. That's how I understand it, and I paraphrase in the utmost respect. Let that sink in for a while... It's changed my perspective,..as I'm sure it has yours...

So!..Whoa!!! Tomorrow at sunrise we ride..

I won't be posting much, if at all, for this part of the journey – as I'm sure you all understand.

Thank you all for supporting me during this and being there with me along the ride. I hold you all in my heart as I ride my way home. And thank you again Lake Weir Living for helping make this happen.

Hoka Hey!..

Today is a Good Day to______ !
