HI, MY NAME IS SCOTT BROWN, Rider # 1051 participating in the 2022 Hokahey Motorcycle Challenge AND I AM RAISING MONEY TO COMBAT THIS DREADED DISEASE THAT MY LATE DAD, HOWARD BROWN JR AND MY LATE AUNT EVA WERE AFFLICTED WITH. IT WAS HARD TO SEE HOW IT EFFECT THEM AND MOST OF ALL HOW IT EFFECTED THE REST OF OUR FAMILY. THERE MUST BE A CURE OUT THERE AND WITH YOUR ASSISTANCE WE CAN HELP THE DR'S AND RESEARCHERS FIND IT. TODAY, AN ESTIMATED 50 MILLION PEOPLE WORLDWIDE ARE LIVING WITH ALZHEIMER'S OR OTHER , INCLUDING MORE THAN 5 MILLION AMERICANS. IN THE UNITED STATES ALONE, 16 MILLION FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS ARE PROVIDING THEIR CARE. WE MUST TAKE ACTION NOW, OR THESE NUMBERS WILL CONTINUE TO RISE.

NOW I BET YOUR WONDERING WHAT IS THE HOKA HEY MOTORCYCLE CHALLENGE? IT IS ORGANIZED BY THE MEDICINE SHOW LLC, THE HOKA HEY MOTORCYCLE CHALLENGE(tm) IS BASED ON THE LAKOTA SIOUX PRINCIPAL OF WOLAKOTA AND THE EVENT CELEBRATES ALL THAT IS PURE AND POWERFUL IN THE WARRIOR SPIRIT. A WARRIOR ISN'T JUST A SOLDIER WHO PROTECTS AND DEFENDS... THEY ARE MENTORS, GUIDES AND TEACHERS. THEY SET THE EXAMPLE FOR OTHERS AND LEND STRENGTH TO THE PEOPLE. THE STRONGER THE WARRIORS BECOME - THE STRONGER THE PEOPLE BECOME. THE MEDICINE SHOW LLC SHARES A VISION OF STRONG WARRIORS WHO ARE READY TO LEAD THE WAY WITH VIRTUES LIKE RESPECT, HONOR, INTEGRITY AND COMPASSION. WE PROMOTE THE CHALLENGE WITH THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVES OF:

RAISING AWARENESS FOR SOCIAL ISSUES WHILE SENDING CHALLENGERS THROUGH SOME OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACES IN NORTH AMERICA. * INSPIRING A WILLINGNESS AND DESIRE TO ACCEPT PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY WITH A SENSE OF DUTY AND PRINCIPLE; TO CULTIVATE WISDOM, COMMUNITY AND COMPASSION AND TO DISPLAY AND FOSTER RESPECT, HARMONY, PEACE AND FRIENDSHIP.
* CREATING AN ARMY OF WARRIORS WITH THE STRENGTH TO FACE ADVERSITY; THE CHARACTER TO MAKE SACRIFICES AND THE DESIRE TO COME TO THE AID OF OTHERS IN NEED.
* EMPOWERING OTHERS TO OVERCOME OBSTACLES THAT HAVE PHYSICALLY, MENTALLY OR FINANCIALLY CHALLENGED THEM AND KNOW THEY ARE NOT IN IT ALONE. WE ARE THE VEHICLE THAT'S HELPS MOVE THEM FORWARD AND REFOCUS THEM TOWARD SUCCESS.

THE 2022 HOKA HEY MOTORCYCLE CHALLENGE IS SET TO KICK OFF ON JUNE 26TH 2022 AND WILL BE THE START OF ANOTHER 10,000 MILE TEST OF ENDURANCE, PATIENCE, AND SKILL. THIS EVENT IS NOT A RACE BUT A GRUELING BATTLE OF ENDURANCE AND DETERMINATION THAT WILL CHANGE ANY RIDER'S PERSPECTIVE BY MAKING THEM DIG DEEP WITHIN TO FIND WHETHER THEY HAVE STRENGTH OF MIND AND SENSE OF PURPOSE. THE 2022 CHALLENGE WILL BEGIN AND END IN THE BLACK HILLS OF SOUTH DAKOTA. I WONT KNOW WHERE IM HEADED UNTIL THE EVENT STARTS AND EVEN THEN I WILL ONLY BE GIVEN THE FIRST SET OF DIRECTIONS, APPROX. 2500 MILES. EACH PARTICIPATE CAN NOT USE A GPS MAP AND MUST REST NO MORE THAN 50 FEET FROM HIS MOTORCYCLE DURING THE EVENT. THERE WILL BE NUMEROUS CHECK POINTS THAT MUST BE REACHED SO THAT NEW DIRECTIONS CAN BE GIVEN AND SOMETIMES THERE WILL BE SURPRISE CHECK POINTS TO KEEP YOU ON YOUR TOES. EACH PARTICIPATE IS TRACKED BY AN ONBOARD GPS TRACKER TO ENSURE THAT YOU STAY ON THE DESIGNATED ROUTE, DEVIATION OFF OF THE ROUTE CAN DISQUALIFY YOU FROM BEING AN OFFICIAL FINISHER. KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN FOR INFORMATION BY WATCHING THIS PAGE AND MY FACEBOOK PAGE FOR UPDATES. AS WE GET CLOSER TO THE START OF THE EVENT I WILL BE ADDING A GPS TRACKER TO MY BIKE SO THAT EVERYONE CAN TRACK ME IN REAL TIME AS I PARTICIPATE IN THIS CHALLENGE. JUST SO YOU KNOW THIS EVENT IN 2020 RAISED NEARLY $500,000 FOR ASSORTED CHARITIES FROM EACH OF THE RIDERS. I HOPE THAT THIS AMOUNT CAN BE EXCEEDED IN 2022, SO STAND UP TO THE DARKNESS OF ALZHEIMER'S AND MAKE A DONATION TODAY TO HELP THE ALZHEIMER'S ASSOCIATION SUPPORT ALL THOSE FACING THE DISEASE.
