Thank You
Heavenly Father, thank you for the beautiful gift of life.
Thank you for good health and strength,
and other riders around the world.
As we prepare to ride to our destination,
We ask you to shield us from any harm.
Thank you for other motorists on the road.
Be their guide wherever they are going.
Keep us all safe from danger and help us reach our destinations.
Thank you for leading us on our path,
and protecting us as we go,
Amen.

Go Before Us
Heavenly Father, King of Glory, before we start this journey, we ask you to go before us and clear the roads that we will be using.
Remove every obstacle that may block us from reaching our destination safely.
Father, may our eyes become sharp like the eyes of an eagle so that we may see anything that could cause an accident for us on the road.
Thank you for sending your angels to be with us.
In Jesus’ name, we believe and pray, Amen.

On your Own
“You are on your own. You are not protected by two tons of steel, rubber, foam padding and safety glass. Neither are you steering two tons of guided missile toward other cars, people and property. If you are prepared to accept the responsibility of your own actions, then motorcycling can be both safe and thrilling. Riding is an art as well as a craft and no amount of explanation can take the place of experience.
― Theresa Wallach, Easy Motorcycle Riding, 1970

Serenity Prayer
God, grant me the Serenity
To accept the things I cannot change…
Courage to change the things I can,
And Wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time,
Enjoying one moment at a time,
Accepting hardship as the pathway to peace.
Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is,
Not as I would have it.
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His will.
That I may be reasonably happy in this life,
And supremely happy with Him forever in the next.
Amen.
