Racing Prayer

Our Lord who art in Asphalt,
Velocity be thy name,
Thy turns come,
Thy laps be done,
on Asphalt or on Dirt,
Give us these races, our daily races
And forgive us our inside passes,
As we forgive those that stuff us,
And lead us not into the dirt,
But deliver us from walls and trees


"I'd rather be riding my motorcycle, thinking about God, than sitting in church thinking about my motorcycle."
