HUBBARD — HUBBARD

Harleys and Hondas and ... Huffys? Oh my.

They were all part of the second annual Blessing of the Bikes today outside First Baptist Church on Orchard Avenue. The bikes were parked across the street from the church, in the Hubbard Board of Education parking lot.

The event originally was scheduled last week but was postponed due to rainy weather.

The sun shone this week, though, and about a dozen bikers brought their rides to the church, where Pastor Luke Oskin, church members and other bikers circled around each bike, joined hands and prayed for showers of blessings on the bikes, the riders and their passengers.
