May the sun rise in front of you, the rain fall behind you, and the wind follow you. May the angels guard your travels, for they know what lies ahead. Keeping you safe through rolling hills and swirling turns. Let the eagle guide you to the mountain tops, and let the moon’s light guide you through the night. Lord, thank You for giving us our biker.
