Still Riding...

I know I haven't been updating too much lately, but I have done a bit of riding.

I rode out to Slab City the weekend prior to the Slab City Riot with members from the Roadhouse Biker Church and the Black Sheep.  We had about 13 bikes, a few trucks and SUVs, and about 45 people or so on the trip.  Our goal was to deliver food, water, and some clothing to the locals.

It was a rewarding experience to be able to help out.  We handed out around 100 bags of groceries to those in need, provided a generator for the church, and donated bags of clothing.

There are some people that are really in need out there.  I was surprised to see the age ranges of the residents of the area of Niland, Ca known as Slab City.  They varied from the elderly to the very young.  One woman in her 70s lives in a car.  Others are just as unfortunate.

If you can find it in your hearts, and your church or group would like to donate to a good cause, make your way out to Slab City and do some good.
