Motorcycle Adventures
He did two tours of Europe on motorcycles. He met so many amazing people on these trips who remained life long friends. Among the places he reminsced about on these tours:
Turkey - Old Silk Road and Cappadocia.
Alps - Including riding through the Mount Blanc tunnel and the beauty of the town Cortina de' Ampezzo.
He had the motorcycle from his last tour shipped to Hawaii and continued his adventures by taking his great niece (Gabbie Kruse) and nephew (Tony Kruse) on a ride in the side car (pictured in 2012).
He shipped it to the mainland and at the age of 79 rode it from LA to Hesparia, CA. He finally sold the motorcycle in 2015 when it was evident his strength wouldn't allow him to ride it again.
