There are no entitlements; the world doesn’t owe us anything. We must work, sweat, and scrape to get what we need and even then, what we need is not guaranteed. All that we accomplish, even the small things, cannot be done on our own. Nobody lives in a bubble, and nobody can do it all. We must be willing to depend on others and we must be willing to give assistance when needed without thought of personal gain. We are all familiar with the old Aesop’s Fable of “The Father, His Sons, and The Bundle of Sticks” which demonstrates there is strength in numbers. It is easy to out flank a single person, to break them, to wear them down. A person standing alone has no one to rely on when overcome. In Aesop’s tale the sons were perpetually quarreling over trivial matters and because of it could not accomplish the simplest of tasks. Like the father, we know that disunion will destroy us. When we stand united, watching out for each other, with the same mindset and goals, we will persevere. Economic background, financial status, skin color, or gender are tools which can divide us; whereas unity can be our strength. The organizers of the 2012 Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge™ united to work closely with the Seneca People to bring attention to the plight of Indian people around the U.S. This Event, beginning on August 5th, 2012 in Las Vegas, NV traveled just over 6,000 miles to end on the Seneca Indian Territory near Gowanda, NY. The owners of Wolf’s Run Transport welcomed us by hosting the finish line and throwing one of the best End of the Road parties we’ve had to date! As members of the Seneca Nation, the owners of Wolf’s Run believed that, by hosting the finish line of the 2012 Challenge, they would be helping to unite the nations together. They understood that there is a lot of work to do in this capacity and wanted to help advance that cause. UNITED WE STAND became the theme of the 3rd annual Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge™; for united together we will stand, but divided we WILL fall.
