Game Over: A Ride For Freedom


Hey Everyone! 
My friends are going on an adventure and supporting After Hours Ministry while they're at it, 
SO RAD! 

Follow this link for the details and see their message below :)



Hello! And welcome to our adventure!
Here's the scoop:
Spending 10 days on a bike might not sound like a ideal way to get from point A to point B, we will certainly give you that. But then again, you don't have to. That's where we come in!
A few months ago, we got the wild idea to ride our bikes from San Francisco to Los Angeles. All 562 miles of it! So we started training and getting ready! But as we rode, we realized that our ride was missing a vital ingredient; purpose. Something to get us through the next mile and over the next hill! This is where you come in!
We have decided to Ride for Freedom.
After Hours has been loving the people of Los Angeles since 2006. Their purpose is simple;
"Our mission is to LOVE until the last lock breaks. By finding unique ways of building relationships with the men and women we meet on the streets of Los Angeles involved in street prostitution who are hurting and searching for a God that passionately desires to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes. Isaiah 61."
Gabe and Tommy have been working with After Hours since 2011 and have grown to love both the people we work with in After Hours and the people we seek love on the streets of Los Angeles.
Our purpose is also simple: We want this ride to be part of something bigger within our adventure. We want it to be about loving people and loving the communities we live in. Every cent donated to this campaign will go directly to After Hours and towards their continued efforts in South Central Los Angeles.
We ride to break locks.
We ride to bring freedom.
We ride to love.
