Checking In
It’s been a while since my last post, so I thought I would exhibit some evidence of life. I’ve just been busy trying to get personal chores done at the ranch that get neglected when I’m out playing. I have a few more rides under my belt, so I am working on the ride reports for the LOE 1000 and the Deming Veterans Day Gathering.
I acquired a 1973 Rokon Ranger 2×2 and a side car for it. I plan on restoring it and it runs like a champ, she just ain’t pretty yet. I am doing parts research and I need to order a sandblaster and painting equipment. The Rokon, has a 2 cycle engine runs great but it needs some TLC and brake components.

My new/old Rokon Ranger.
What it use to look like.
The Side Car I found on EBay. Literally pristine and for about 1/3 of the cost of a new one.
I also joined the Patriot Guard Riders. To learn more, click on the image.

I have no more rides planned until the Holidays are over, I just need to get caught up. You all come back now you hear!
