I've been working here since I was 15 years old. My passion for powersports keeps me here and still excited to come to work every day. Adventure bikes are my favorite flavor of motorcycles. I consider them the pickup trucks of motorcycles. Current bike is a BMW F800GS, because it does everything well. Love me some family time and road trip adventures on the weekends!
