Random photos from the shop. This is shaping up to be a fun little project... Going for "no noise producing" karts for some backyard fun. All electric. So far it's a little slow but still playing with gearing. It is fairly nimble and rides well, even hauling my 200 pound butt around

While a senior in college in Springfield, MO in 1972 I was wondering what I was going to do once I got my degree. As luck would have it, I bought Stephen Stills and Manassas's first album. On it was the song Colorado. For some reason it, and the album really resonated with this burgeoning hippie and I decided to move to Breckenridge in the spring of 1973. A fateful move that has turned out to be the second best decision I've ever made. Colorado at that time was wild and free and suited me to a T. Bought my first FJ40 about a month after getting here. Thanks Stephen!!!

So many great songs were recorded at Caribou. From John Lennon to Elton John, Eart Wind and Fire to Joe Walsh. Just before they stopped publishing, the Rocky had several feature stories about Caribou. One of my favorite anecdotes was how they got Stevie Wonder to drive around on the ranch. Reminds me of the blindfolded obstacle course event when the Millers hosted the Rising Sun Christmas party in 2000,
