Epic Motorcycle Tour 2009

Maybe for some folks this isn’t the most epic motorcycle tour ever. But for me, it’s huge.

Six men. Six bikes. One thousand, one hundred fifteen kilometres. Four days.

I’m lovin’ it!

The Road Trip

Four thousand, four hundred and twelve kilometers. Ten days. Of that, nearly fifteen hundred kilometers in two driving days on the motorcycle with my lovely on the back.

But the direction thought of going remains. The thought just wouldn’t leave us alone, so we decided to drive to Caronport, Saskatchewan and “smell the air” out there, giving God the opportunity to speak to us. Parallel to this thought, I had an overwhelming urge to visit my Dad’s church in Schuler, Alberta and play my song “Whatever (http://davidfriesen NULL.jasonfriesen NULL.ca/albums/soulkin/whatever/)” for them. I felt strongly that they needed to hear the song’s message.
