Tires

"Caught in the rain again!" the moto rider bemoans his unfortunate predicament.  Abe is riding his bike, speeding on the freeway, headed home from Los Angeles.  Trying to beat the ominous rain clouds that loomed above, but to no avail.  The sky opens up, and raindrops fall.  Plink...plink...plink.  The wind and rain combination produces a stinging effect, "Ouch!"  Abe mourns, and speeds up faster.  Unrelenting rain.  Slick roads...sleek pavement...puddles.  After an hour of misery, Abe finally reaches home.  Drenched.



A motorcycle's engine, torque, handling, design, and sound are among the first features that moto riders appreciate on a bike.  But a bike's tires are often taken for granted, although they are very important in the performance of a bike.  Without reliable tires, Abe wouldn't just be feeling the rain's sting, he would have been slipping and sliding all over the freeway.  Without dependable tires, he wouldn't feel confident in taking tight turns when transitioning freeways.  And without steadfast tires, he wouldn't be racing down the freeway in the rain, trying to escape a thunderstorm...

Up until last week, aHbe Racer was feeling overwhelmed with the daily aspects of running a company.  Abe has superb design and sales skills; Rowe is good at accounting and admin stuff.  But they realized they couldn't do it all themselves.  They needed a third person, someone who is great at business and finance.  In answer to our prayers, we welcome Brian to Team aHbe Racer!  He represents the tires on our bikes that will keep us on track, take us wherever God leads.  Racing down the freeway, at 200 mph...well, maybe not in the rain, though...while the wheels are spinning...
