So the trike name….well, “Cactus Medicine” is a big, bad rodeo bull. He is a gorgeous, muscular, orange- roan and black and silver spotted beast. When you turn him out of the gate---well you best be holding on tight. Holly and I love the Southwest style and colors and my old cowboy and rodeo roots still run deep. The name and style fit the trike and us. Seems we cannot go anywhere without getting stopped at gas stations, restaurants, stores and rest stops by people of all different ages asking questions and more than once we found someone taking pictures when we came back 26 Thunder Roads Magazine® Colorado to our pride and joy. Seems the effort and time was worth it. We love our rides and whenever the time and weather cooperates, we go riding. This summer (2015) we had the joy of riding the finished trike out to Sturgis with our son-inlaw and daughter on their bike. Cannot wait for reasonably warm weather and more riding! Riding with family and friends is what the motorcycle lifestyle is about; meeting great people, and feeling the freedom of the knees-in-thebreeze! And No, you do not have to be old to ride a trike…. especially a tricked out custom one-of-a kind trike. February 2016 www.thunderroadscolorado.com
