Seth & Hannah in Japan

Right now I am in a neighboring city helping out with a MTB event that a friend of ours in putting on. It’s 3 half days of riding and 3 half days of discussion about how to get the MTB market to grow in Japan. There has been lots of good conversation about building community, networking and trail building so far and I expect more after this.

Being here for this kind of event is a big answer to prayer for us as we are able to have an influence not only on the user but the industry. Hannah and I started praying about this when we were in Gifu about 4 years ago and our prayer is being answered through these kind of events. We are partnering directly with Snow and Bike companies to grow a healthy market, which in our thinking also includes a relationship with Jesus Christ. Snowboarding and Biking are fun but without Jesus they are both very empty. We are beginning to be able to share this with people in the industry along with our end user guests.
