Well we're down to less than 2 weeks before I head to Mesa AZ. These last 10 days or so have been very busy. The bike "Little Brother" is about ready to go, all service work and new tires are on and complete. Thank you to Brad Holzhauer owner of St Charles Harley Davidson for that and a donation that will help with numerous expenses. Brad and his crew of managers and employees has done tremendous things with this dealership in just under 3 years of operation. I am proud to be associated with the #1 dealer in our area. If you need a new Harley,  service work, parts, accessories or motorclothes this is the dealership to go to. 

Team Svoboda has made a generous donation that is greatly appreciated and has a special place in my heart. You see team Svoboda is my baby sisters family and they are almost as excited about the challenge as I am.
Hoka Hey little sister!

Ridetek industries has donated a set of "LidHaulers" and "LidSaks". This product is unique and is of the best quality. The LidHauler fits on the top of a standard Harley Davidson hard saddlebag and has a pair of straps sewn into it. These straps enable you to hold the LidSak, which is pretty much a small duffel bag, to the top of the bag. They are designed to hold soft items like rain suits, jackets, clothing and sleeping bags. If you have ever traveled any length of time on a bike you will love these things. Go to Ridetek.com and check them out. Bill at Ridetek has been very easy to deal with and I recommend him, this company and their product highly.

Deb Colburn, co-owner of Prudential Select Properties, has made a donation that will help out with travel expenses and day to day stuff like food and gas. Thank you Deb! I have known Deb from the real estate business for about 18 years, 10 of which I have worked at her office. If you or anyone you know ever needs real estate assistance call Deb and she will see to it you are taken care of. If you have ever thought about real estate as a career Deb's company and her office in particular have the best tools and training available. You can reach her at 636-720-1100. Or online at PrudentialSelectProperties.com/DebColburn.

Greg Daughtery from St Peters MO and a friend from the St Charles HOG Chapter has made a donation to help with expenses also. Thanks Greg , hope we can ride later this summer!

I'd also like to thank all of my friends, co-workers and family that have given me well wishes and support. Your encouragement has meant a lot to me and helps me be motivated to do the best I can.

Be sure to check out the Hoka Hey web site. The announcement this morning is they have signed a deal with a producer of several TV shows and documentary films to interview and follow us during the challenge. they have options apparently for films and reality TV shows etc.

Thanks to all, Happy Trails & Hoka Hey!
