'hacking is learning'
DTT BOTM WINNER
So, I'm sorta picky but just the same I love motorcycles of all kinds for different reasons. This weekend I headed North in my home state and hit up the first year of the #runtoraton chopper gtg. Check it out on Instagram. Raton is a tiny little town in northeast New Mexico. My shovelhead motor build is too fresh and still breaking in to take on longer rides but the Mrs and I drove up to Raton, NM to check out the event anyway. The big giveaway was a crazy trike built by JP Rodman with an S&S Panhead motor. Met some cool folks, talked motorcycles, sipped Irish whiskey and took pics. Saw some really great choppers, some crazy stuff I wouldn't ride and everything in between. Good times.

Yeah, there were little or no bs attitudes there, everybody seemed to just be having a good time. I met Jp and Oliver among others, nice guys, Jp is a wiz. He has a cool shop and his parents were there helping things along.
 
Thanks for sharing pictures of the show. I'd like to do that run. My son and daughter in law own a ranch in La Mesa just north of El Paso so we get to New Mexico about once a year.

Glad you liked the pics. Bring rain gear, it was really wet in the late parts of the day. I hope they do it again next year, I'll get to ride my chop and not be the chump who drove.

The black knucklehead or the white/blue panhead? Both are sweet but I love that knuckle trike.
The Knuckle ;)
Not sure I'd wanna ride it though. It looks scary as fuck :p
