Reflections By: Pastor Terry Burke

Well as I sit here thinking of the year to come, my mind reflects to my bike and the up-grades and changes I have made this past year.  As many of you know, this can be a big leap of faith changing your ride up and it can be costly.  So this is where I will share my experiences about Chariots of Fire Customs LLC.  It begins back in December of 09;  I had just driven about 1800 miles (nonstop) picking up my new street glide.  I had met Jan and Jim a couple of times, really brief encounters, but thought I’d give them a try.  Well I showed up to unload my bike looking for a ramp and the one I found was not what I was looking for.  It turns out it’s the block wall outside the shop and then Jim decides to go sliding all over the parking lot in the snow to bring the bike in.  So there begins my relationship with the shop.  And it has grown into more than a business relationship, it’s a friendship.  That’s one thing that’s great about them whether you are new to the biker life or been riding for years, this shop supplies great service.  I have had all my oil changes and services done there along with a power commander and many other things.  The work has always been done professionally, along with good pricing. 

 

One thing that has impressed me just as much as the quality of service work, which is very important, is their passion for people.  They take time to really help you find anything you are looking for and make sure it’s exactly what you want.  I am the director for HonorBound M/M in this area and for the last couple of years the gang from Chariots of Fire has been a great support.  Every year they team up with us for our annual bike blessing in downtown Troy, which drew over 500 bikes this year.  This wouldn’t have been possible without them.  They also do many other things throughout the year such as charity rides for camps and kids all over our area, Memorial runs for fallen brothers and sisters.  Some of the great times are on their weekly dinner rides throughout the area, and so many more things.

 

That all being said, I would recommend Chariots of Fire Customs LLC for any of your bike needs.  It doesn’t matter if it’s a Metric or V-twin they got you covered.  And who knows maybe our roads may cross there someday, and till then I pray you remain up right and ride safe.
