Meet The New Rider Dave Fournier # 900

Camping and exploring being out in the woods and add a motorcycle into the equation sound like a perfect combination to Dave. So once he had his epiphany moment he found out he really like long distance riding. Wanting to test his limits and the advice he has been given by other Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge riders, Dave wants to take that desire to challenge himself against this event and put those things into practice. "Figure out who you are what you are and ride your ride."  Participating in other things such as the tour of honor has been giving him some ride time. 

Motorcycle riding keeps Dave smiling and is in his blood. Replacing medications with motorcycles has been his experience, now that he has wind therapy, he doesn't need the meds. Finishing the challenge under his own power as the rules are stated so as not to cheat himself out of a clean finish and clear conscious are the expectations he has for himself.  Riding a ride about integrity with integrity.   "Otherwise you're just paying $500 for a route."

Lots of motivated supporters, planning on following the progression to see if this might not be something in their future bucket list. But for now living vicariously through  the computer screen, checking daily if not hourly on the progression of not only the ones they know, but the struggles of other riders who they feel like they know. Forming friendships, even if they are on Facebook for now, they still feel like family.
