   Years ago I would explore Michigans western UP on vacations. My Chevy   
   K10 wouldn't fit down most of the trails anymore because of its width.   
   Trails were being kept open by quad-runners. Mountain bike worked well   
   enough but something motorized would have been nice too. Liked the idea   
   of a Rokon two-wheel drive motorcycle but nearly had heart failure   
   when viewing the price. It's even doubled since I last looked😬 Still   
   think it would work great. Could have carried it on rear of the truck   
   using a hitch mount. Though can't fathom leaving it unattended anywhere   
   with that kinda price tag...
