Category: Rich’s Ride

For a couple of days, it’s time to stop. For a couple of days, no talk of rides and books and Florida. For a couple of days we let that stuff go and remember why we’re doing this. More than two thousand years ago a little baby was born. His birth changed history and brought […]

A dream is the God-inspired desire to share your unique gifts and passions to serve others and change the world. I don’t think I realized it was possible to work so hard and have so much fun. That was my thought as we finished up this weekend. Becky and I were really busy signing and […]

I’ve never given birth to a baby. As a writer, producing a book is about as close as I’ll get to that feeling. That’s a good thing from just about every perspective I can imagine. This week is all about anticipation as we await delivery (birth reference) of the first copies of the new book. We’ve […]

I’ve been using my spiffy circle graphic to encourage you to engage with RICH’S RIDE. The bike represents the opportunity to come to Florida and ride along with us for a few days or contact a friend who lives there and might want to crank a few miles. I hope you’ll consider those possibilities. I realize […]

I’m challenging you to Do A Thousand Of Something as a tangible way of engaging with our 1000-mile ride in Florida Hope Tour 2013. It’s worth asking whether we really need to keep score. Is there anything special about 1000? Do numbers really matter? Yeah, I think they do. But maybe not in the way […]

Last time I asked: Can You Do A Thousand Of Something? As a teacher I saw a lot of interesting student projects. One of the coolest was devised by a group of seventh graders. They proposed collecting a million of something. Have you ever seen a million of anything in one place? It was a […]

…is a long time. I can remember when a quarter-century was my whole life, then most of my life. Now it’s less than half my life, but it’s still a long time. A quarter-century ago today, lots of things were different for me. I still had hair, for example. And I could walk. Tomorrow’s the […]

Have you ever thought about doing a thousand of something? That’s your challenge for today. I’m going to ride 1000 miles around the perimeter of Florida for Florida Hope Tour 2013. I challenge you to do a thousand of something. And, to make it fun and add a bit of accountability, how about sharing your plan […]

Just in time for Cyber-Monday, I have another way for us to bring some people into the circle surrounding RICH’S RIDE. This one’s easy—you can pre-order a copy or three of RICH’S RIDE: Hope Changes What’s Possible. I’ve always been a reader, but I’m not sure I ever understood the real power of a book […]

Last time I promised I’d ask for some help as we work together to expand and enrich the circle around RICH’S RIDE. So today I’ll use my spiffy little graphic to talk a little about connect and spread the word. Connect is about enhancing a conversation inside the circle. Please don’t think of this as […]
