An XO-2 at XO-1.org

We were in Death Valley recently to host our new Hell's Gate Hundred event on April 18, 2009. At the Furnace Creek Ranch we made the acquaintance of Ron Mackrodt from the SF Bay Area. He wasn't there for our event, but he was there to bike, motorcycle, hike, and otherwise enjoy Death Valley in as many ways as possible. His unmotorized bike caught my eye immediately. It's a Bridgestone XO-2, with a custom paint job by D&D, a classic BSA logo headbadge, and lots of neat component, accessory, and accoutrement choices. Enjoy! (I know Rod does!)
By the way, his motorcycle is a 1970 Triumph Bonneville 750. I asked Rod if Triumph still makes bikes and he replied "not like this one." I know that sentiment well!
