About Me
Grew up in a little town in CA, rode road bikes for fun, discovered motorcycles at 15, and never looked back. Bought my first car when I was 16, 1968 Mustang fastback, Hunter green, 289, 4spd. Moved to CO, Joined the Army and been doing that deal all over the world for 23 or so years.
Bought a 1978 bronco 1990, and fell in love with off roading all over again. Spent the next 15 years building that vehicle and runnig up and down every trail I could find in SC, NC, Alaska and Oregon. Made some trips to CO for 4WD events. Enjoyed some off road racing in Australia a 2002 and 2003. While at Fort Lewis training ROTC cadets in 2005, went out on a boring night to look at the new Mustang.. Saw a GT.. Build date….same as my wife’s birth day, Windveil Blue, same color as my moms first new car, 1966 Mustang coupe, the first car I ever drove… Told the sales guy I’d take it…he said lets go talk about financing.. I said,, ummm, no,, I’ll take it.. Have it prepped; I’ll be back in the morning. Walked in at 0900 Monday morning and handing him a cashers check, drove my new GT back to billeting at FT Lewis… Then I started thinking about how I was getting a Bronco, with a dirt bike in the back and a mustang home to Oregon at the end of the month….. All’s well that ends well..
