RiggerDan day because yesterday was his Birthday or the day before. Not sure, I did hit my head in my crash.

It takes a special person to smile while changing a flat in the dirt in bad weather.

Today we have the Kug! I first met Ken back in 89 when I was his chase driver for the Baja 1000. Since then we’ve ridden at least 10,000 miles together on off rode adventures. If you’re ever fortunate enough to get invited on a Kug ride don’t miss it. I have hundreds of pics of the Kug from dozens of rides over the years.

The "somewhere" shot is Colorado BDR, taken by yours truly. The "Again I have no idea, but I'll go wherever Chris is pointing" shot is at the top of Black Mountain in Ramona.

A pic from way way back.... this morning when our friend who is new to KTM learned about the Automatischer First Ride Explodierender Nummernschildträger (AFREN) feature. Plate, and blinkers are in low earth orbit presently, I think he has a tail tidy and a new plate to order :) Left: My 690 Enduro R, Center Perry and his 500 EXC-F, Right: Scott on the excellent Husaberg 570.

Here he is the one and only Bagstr, AKA the Governor. Dave is one of the few people I know that never seems to lose his cool no matter what the situation. 

And I know that I've probably tried his patience more than once.

 

Dave is always a stickler for keeping a tidy camp.

This is one of my favorite pics of Dave. Rigger and I met Dave out in the middle of ABDSP for an overnighter. He may or may not have fallen out of his chair a few times this evening (alcohol might have been involved).
