Hoka Hey to the 2014 Challengers

My shout out to those Warriors who completed this years challenge, those who left but did not make it to the finish line and those who sacrificed their all and then some. Anyone who crosses that starting line to have what it takes to gear up and set your soul on a journey like that is a riding Brother or Sister in my book for life.

Nothing else matters. How a rider transforms themselves to undertake such a challenge to mentally prepare and execute is hard to explain unless you were signed on and had what it took to try. In that world, nothing else mattered and you were focused. This is true for our Military personnel we must never forget.

I've read some really fascinating blogs on those who captured memories and pics who were able to share their experiences with us. I will always have that in the back of my mind and can feel that light flickering deep in my own soul to finish what I didn't start. If the stars and moons ever align, I will hear the lone wolf warrior howl again.

4th Year Anniversary - June 20 2014

4 years into my new lease on life, "what a strange trip it's been" but nothing short of Fantabulous!

I'm approaching another milestone where so much of my new adventure has made me reflect on what started out to be a life changing and soul searching event, to turn around and become a life changing soul finding direction all for the good. So much has transpired leading up to, during and after my own personal Hokahey Challenge.


The birth of my Grandson Mr. James Brody Goldman, aka "The Bro", who recently turned 1 year old. I sincerely believe he had a role to play by the great spirits who decided that fateful Sunday afternoon as I lay on the highway like a rag doll next to my shattered bike, whether I should remain in this life and cherish his presence or carry on to take my soul elsewhere. The spirits chose life and for that I remain grateful.
