Giving you the latest update on Charley. I just talked to his better half Lesli and she told me he is tired but very determined. He is at the Kentucky border and will ride into Green Bay late tonight. He will then rest a bit and go from Green Bay to Colorado and plans to arrive into the Sterling area around 6 a.m. Saturday morning. We will meet him in Sterling and follow him to Weld County airport for the Honor Flight breakfast. Hoping to get there between 9 and 10 a.m.

Charley Barnes is still putting on the miles. He was in Maryland last night and will go around the tip of Maine today and back into Maryland for leg 7 of 9 on his 10,000 miles in 10 days endurance ride for Honor Flight. He has already gone border to border in less than 24 hours and has gone coast to coast in less than 50 hours. Amazing.

Our friend and fellow Journey4Justice member Erik Jon Barrett hooked up with Charley in Alabama and rode to the coast with Charley. He shot some video for us to enjoy to see what it's like rolling with Charley.

We are going to go meet Charley when he rolls into Colorado on Saturday morning. I would like to see a sea of bikes join me to bring him in. We will be meeting at the 7/11 Shell store on 35th and 10th in Greeley for a 3:30 a.m. departure to ride to Sterling to meet Charley at 6 a.m. and follow him into town. Let me know if you will be riding with us. This man deserves a heroes welcome. Thank you to my buddy Steve Bourassa for being my point man in helping set up the return rendezvous.
