Champions...

This is my favourite picture of Debbie and Glen - Julie's parents - from our time with them.

As you know, they supported the first three weeks of our ride as we rode from the West Coast to Winnipeg.

They drove our gear from campsite to campsite as we rode between.

They setup camp and tore camp down.

They cooked.

They cleaned.

They consoled.

Glen made runny eggs for Andy each morning, joked about their poor quality, and then made good eggs for Judah.

They prayed for us at the outset of each day, when we were finally ready to ride off in the morning.

They often met us halfway on a day's ride for food and encouragement - which made such a difference on hard days.

But more than all this - they are to be commended for being the first beyond Judah and me and Julie and the girls, to actually believe this was possible and to get behind it practically.

We would not have made it as far as we did in three weeks without their support. But even more, we would have had a much harder time assuring loved ones this was doable had they not signed themselves up to help from nearly the first mention of the idea.

Glen and Debby, we bless you!Read more
