Biker Dude Outreach

The Christian Motorcycle Organization is an interesting outreach to the biker community.
They wear leather vests and sport tattoos, earrings and long hair. They ride hogs, cruisers and sport bikes, but the Unchained Riders are not the typical motorcycle group...The group's unassuming president, Larry Overcash, wears a denim vest, models a goatee and keeps his long hair tucked underneath a black baseball cap.
He said their target audience is a tough sector, but one that makes for interesting times and fantastic rewards.
"A lot of the 'hard core' people are not going to go to church on Sunday morning, but they see us on bikes and we can talk to them about what they're interested in. We're just like them, but we've got something to talk to them about," he said.
Yet another example of God's infinite creativity in sending out His word to the world.
