I have completed one Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge in 2018 as an “Elite Rider,” accomplishing the
challenge in the top 20. This was an amazing accomplishment for me
and I’m very proud of it. It was also a very good learning experience.
When you do the HHMC for the first time, you
really don’t know what to expect. Now having one down, I know
everything I need and what I need to do to prepare for this challenge.
As a Project Manager at Quality Steel Fabrication, I have the
opportunity to create my own custom box to help carry the supplies for
this challenge and I feel like this is one of my main objectives before
the challenge this year. Also, nutrition is going to
be an important concern this year because in 2018 I failed to give it
that much thought and I feel it affected my performance. If you think
things through and prepare well, you can reduce MANY of the problems
that you will face during the Challenge and concentrate
on the riding and not all of the issues that you shouldn't be dealing
with.
My friends, coworkers and (I think, though she won’t admit it) even my wife think I’m crazy for doing the HHMC again but
they all support me in my efforts. I’ve been to many motorcycle
events, rallies, rides etc. but you cannot
feel the camaraderie and fellowship as you do with the HHMC. The
brothers and sisters of the HHMC are a true family that you will never
know until you complete the Challenge. #891
