About me:
The "Ride for Diane" was started in July 2003 as a benefit event for Diane Mustica Curtis. With close to 300 bikers in attendance, the event was a success and fun, too!
Diane, a wife and mother of two, lost her battle with brain cancer on November 7, 2004.
The "Ride for Diane" will go on in her memory each and every year to help another local family.
The ride has continued to help another local family going through what Diane's family went through, a family with a Mom or Dad or a child who is battling cancer and facing medical expenses. Each year more bikers than in the previous year have shown up to support the event and our cause.
Forgive me of my sins; for I truly repent and turn to you. Jesus, I ask you now to come into my heart that we might ride together daily. I dedicate myself and my scoot to serving you. Thank you, Lord for my salvation! Thank you, for I am now "in his wind". Amen. {NIV}
Dear Lord, as I get ready to get on this hog and prepare to ride, Just let me feel your presence with me riding side by side. Let us feel the wind together blowing across our face, Don't let me fail to see and smell the nature around me as I ride from place to place. Keep me safe from harm and let the other drivers see me as I ride by, And every once in awhile even though I'm a biker let them say, "Hi". Keep me alert and always watching for others, Don't let me ever fail to stop and help out one of my sisters or brothers. And when my time on earth is up and it's time for me to take that ride in the sky, Just give me a chance to tell everyone I love them and don't forget me when I die. Lord, Thank You for letting me be a biker and doing what I loved the best, For the many miles I traveled, places I got to go and see before I finally came to rest.
MAY THE SUN RISE IN FRONT OF ME MAY THE RAIN FALL BEHIND ME AND THE WIND FOLLOW ME MAY THE ANGELS OF MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS WHO HAVE GONE BEFORE ME GUARD MY TRAVELS FOR THEY KNOW THE PERILS OF THE ROAD AHEAD OF ME KEEP ME SAFE THROUGH THE ROUGH CITY STREETS ON MY WAY TO THE LAND OF SWIRLING TURNS AND ROLLING HILLS LET THE COLORS OF FALL KEEP ME WARM LET THE EAGLE GUIDE ME TO THE MOUNTAINTOPS LET THE MOONS LIGHT GUIDE ME THROUGH THE NIGHT MAY MY TIRES NOT FAIL ME NOR MY ENGINE GROW OLD MAY MY BIKE DRAW LIFE FROM THE STREAMS I PASS KEEP MY SEAT SOFT AND MY MIND SHARP LET THE AIR OF SPRING BREATHE LIFE INTO MY SOUL TO JOURNEY TO ANOTHER ADVENTURE BESIDES MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS
