Track Lessons

George was a quiet, down to earth guy who loved motorcycle racing and later in life learned to love Jesus. The best of his eighty-three years on earth was 1989, when at fifty-four, he got married, adopted a son, and won the United States Motorcycle Association National Championship for the Harley Davidson 883 Sportster series.Motorcycle racing was the constant in his life. Much of what George learned and much of what he taught came from his experiences on the track. Near the end of his life, his two grandsons pick him up at the nursing home to share a weekend of motorcycle racing. During this weekend, George recounts stories of his 1989 championship season, and other highlights of his life.In Track Lessons, author Charlie Seymour creates a mosaic of events that reveal the character and life of George. Each tile of the mosaic is simple, but the collection of tiles shows how average events lead to a deep, meaningful life filled with family and love.
