As I said in my introduction, my name is Arnold. I have been a Christian since 1981. (I'll be posting my full testimony soon.) I've been married to a high school friend, Angela, for nearly 17 years. Angela and I live in Clarkston, Washington. When people who aren't familiar with the area ask where Clarkston is, I ask, "You know where Seattle is?" They say, "Yes." I say, "Clarkston is nowhere near Seattle." Clarkston is almost as far from Seattle as you can get and still be in Washington. I am currently employed as a school bus driver for the school district in Lewiston, Idaho. That should give a clue where Clarkston is. Angela and I attend the Calvary Chapel in Lewiston.
I began riding my own motorcycles eight years ago at the age of 49, going on 50. A family member once asked me if this was a midlife crisis thing. I said, "You [better believe] it is!" The truth is, I was introduced to riding by a "Big Brother" when I was 9 years old. He'd take me for rides on his motorcycle and I fell in love with riding and have wanted to ride ever since. I did a little here and there over the years but finally took the plunge, buying my first bike, a 1989 Yamaha Virago 250 "Route 66", in 2014. My next bike was a 2012 Harley Davidson Sportster 883 XL. I bought my current bike, a 2003 Honda Goldwing GL 1800 on orders from Angela. 😉
I currently serve as Chapter President of the Lewiston Clarkston Gospel Riders #113, a chapter of the Christian Motorcyclist Association. Our chapter is the oldest continuous chapter in Idaho. I consider myself blessed to serve in a chapter with such a rich history in the ranks of CMA. Of course, I'll be writing more about that in future posts as well.
That is enough for now. Unless I am led to do otherwise, I believe I'll be sharing my testimony over the next few posts.
Blessings.
Hopefully We can ride together one day. Good to see Your staying busy. Miss ya Unkle, hi to Ang. Keep em both on the road!
