GUTS Church-We Ride They Eat-tougher then hell

This weekend our church had their annual "tougher then hell" motorcycle ralley. This is the 9th year for this. This was actually my first time attending the event. Last year I was in Dallas with a friend, but Craig got to ride.

The reason for this ralley is our church has sponsored an island-La Gonve, Haiti, to help support. This island has no water to drink, or use to grow anything, so we raise money to pay for water drilling machines, to create wells. Also to clothe and feed young kids. And our next endeavor is to gather enough equipment and people to have a full functioning medical clinic.

This time of year is the reason it makes me so happy to go to GUTS.

But whether you are big into church causes or not, I recommend that anyone who has a bike, try and attend this ralley. Yesterday nearly 5000 bikes gathered at the church and took a 100 mile ride around NE Oklahoma. No words can describe the experience of seeing all those bikes gather and leave at one time, its organized choas and all doing it for a good cause.

I did take a few pictures but I was a little disappointed because by the time the bikes were filing back in it was dark and with their lights, it made it very hard to get the feel, and full effect of the bikes.
