In 2015, my Deadhorse Alaska to Key West Florida was cut short when my back wheel came of and I was flipped forward, breaking 5 ribs.
Today I was able to go back to motel Rancheria, where we abandoned the ride in 2015. It was emotional for me to see the motel and look into the room where all 6 of us spent the night before being taking to the hospital. Pastor Lorne slept on the shag carpet right in front of the bath room. Actually I think he lay there and prayed for me as I moaned and groaned all night. Thank you Pastor Lorne. I feel much better today.
Yuppp…sounds like Lorne…whadda guy!!! Always interesting to see how God can turn our DNF’s into Do Not Fear’s…
