now this is heart!!!! 12 Months ago  
okay guys here is just an example of what can happen when you have a cause such as this and a few like minded bikers behind it this took place this weekend with a few of our club members and well a bunch of others

REXBURG, Idaho -- A young Rexburg boy who was diagnosed with brain cancer had one of his wishes come true Saturday, thanks to the generosity of hundreds of motorcyclists.
7-year-old Wesley Johnson was diagnosed with a rare and inoperable form of brain cancer on Christmas Eve of last year.
One of Wesley's wishes while he was sick was to join a biker gang and ride a motorcycle. A motorcade comprising nearly 400 bikers and the Rexburg Police Department made his wish come true.
Wesley received a full leather jacket, chaps and a vest from Rexburg Motor Sports and dozens of doo-rags from local bikers. The motorcyclists that participated in the motorcade also created a biker gang for Wesley named "Wesley's Warriors" and nominated him as the official president, which he gladly accepted.
Video taken before the ride for Wesley an 8 year old with cancer. this ride was Wesley's wish. Wesley's Warriors in Rexburg Idaho wesleys warriors

Well I know if it happened around here, not that in anyway it would replace the loss or heal the pain but you would have all the support and help you would need I feel the same way as a dad to a 14 year old girl.
