Rev. Dave is licensed under the O.B.F.F. He has been involved in motorcycling since the age of 16. He has participated in ministries within the church, and has always helped where ever his giftings could be used whether for his pastor or others.

Pastor Dave has served in a motorcycle ministry, as a rider and a leader learning what God wanted him to learn and expect of him. Where he later became President of an outreach motorcycle group for 3 years.

During this time God laid on his heart to form Eternal Riders Motorcycle Ministry. Where they have attended many bike shows and rallies, showing Gods love to all whom would accept the love. From this, Pastor Dave has been able to preach the Word of God wherever the doors were open to him.

Pastor Dave was born in Peterborough and was raised in a Christian home. When he was in his early years he attended a United Church. While growing up he was into bike clubs, car clubs, girls, parties and the army. Part time military life taught him how to clean and fire rifles and handguns, drive large trucks and how to party hardy. Then at the age of 19 two things happened: 1. The army changed from military to infantry and he lost interest. 2. The girl of his dreams that he waited for finally agreed to marry him. Life was now looking pretty good for him.

After they were married they had been invited to a church. They accepted the invitation and continued going until one day a group at the church told them they were not the kind of people they wanted in their elite group. At this time being very hurt they walked away from God. If people think you are no good, then what does God think of you? Emotionally scared they both went back to their old life.

Dave and Karen had walked away from God. They drank, cursed and were living an ungodly life. They rode for all the wrong reasons, followed all the wrong people, keeping the devil in their back pocket and putting God out in the left field.

Through a friend, they found Jesus Christ. Beginning with Karen first, she began attending church, later turning her life over to. Within a week, Karen asked Dave to go to church. Dave being the man he was, trying to keep peace in the family decided to go with her. It was at this point in Dave's life, that God was allowed to begin pulling out all the bad stuff. Placing in return morals and values of Jesus Christ in his life. At this point, God could now reveal His plan and purpose for Dave's life.

Today Dave and Karen are working with bikers who have gone through, much of what they've went through.

Dave and Karen have two wonderful girls, a son-in-law and four darling grandchildren They have been married for 39 years and enjoy the work God has given them to do.

At this time Dave and Karen would like to extend an invitation to any who would be interested to visit and see what Kawartha Biker's Church is all about.

Dave and his wife Karen are " Bikers there to help Bikers".
