Recommended Posts

"Baja Turtle" Ken Kosiorek passed away this past weekend riding in Big Bear. Ken will be remembered as completing several Baja 1000's solo, but riding to and from the start/finish line from his home on his plated XR650. Ken also was the first person who found Kurt Caselli after Kurt's crash at the 2013 Baja 1000, and went to retrieve help.
Vaya con Dios, amigo.

So sad-he was such a good soul. I'm happy he passed with his bike. I look forward to following his roost in the next life.

Wow he asked to be Facebook friends when we were putting on the Dana Niesler memorial ride. I was looking forward to meeting him at the ride but he did not make it. I unfriended him because of the stuff he was posting on Facebook.

To bad I did not get to meet him.

Another Baja ledgend gone--- so sad.

RIP Ken
