On May 3-4 I will do another 150 mile ride in the Dallas version of the MS 150 . This is my second year to do this ride. Last year I had the privilege of riding with seven people from Legacy Church and almost 3,000 others to raise money to eliminate Multiple Sclerosis. We believe this is one of many ways we can serve others in the name of Jesus through things we do every day . Here are some pictures and thoughts from last year’s ride A year ago we had three members who started riding in the spring and today our roster is 40 riders strong, with 15 committed to the MS 150 ride.

Here are some things I did to slow down and make room for God and others: I finished my last writing assignment last Friday morning, but I kept my 5:30 a.m. start the last two days and filled the time with reading and Scripture . (You'll see the end result in May, and we'll go through it starting in December.) I rode my bike to the office Monday --and back home. It was nice to say Hello to walkers and joggers, and the way I go I have no real fear of unfriendly drivers. (I forgot my computer power cord at home, and had to ride home to get it at lunch. Ended up riding 12 miles on a beautiful day.) I live only 3 miles from the church's campus. ...
