This is my brother from another mother Gary Kreun. We've been friends since 1972. Gary taught me how to ride a motorcycle, drive a four speed, change oil in a car, and too many other things to mention. When I graduated from college, Gary picked me up in Fargo and we drove to Rapid City where he still lives. He put me on his Kawasaki 175 for a whole week and while he worked at his job, I rode all over the Black Hills, and I mean all over! Every dirt road, every hill I had the guts to climb. I dumped that bike many times but made sure it looked as good as when I started riding it the day I left.
There is NO way I could ever pay Gary back for what he gave me in high school but, when I got The Beast and made my first trip to Sturgis in 2008, I rented another Wide Glide in Sturgis so that Gary could ride my bike for a few days during the rally. Did that again in 2009. I couldn't begin to tell you how great it was to ride behind Gary as he led our group through the Hills, down roads most folks never find. It has been a priceless experience!
Get your brothers out there by hook or by crook, plan a fantastic trip, and make some memories that will last for the rest of your life!
