Gander Mountain has proudly donated an enduro-style, moto-cross hybrid motorcycle, custom built by one of the worlds’ premier builders of custom motorcycles, Orange County Choppers. A leading retailer in the outdoor lifestyle industry, Gander Mountain has teamed up with the crew at OCC to create this custom theme bike, built from the ground up with production featured on two, one hour episodes of the hit television series American Chopper. This theme bike incorporates multiple creative elements and concepts resulting in an eye-catching collector’s piece that offers outstanding performance on or off road. Features include a powerful, V-twin engine, chain drive, inverted front end, long-travel suspension, gas shocks in the front, air shocks in the rear and spoke wheels. Theme elements encompass the entire motorcycle including multi-purpose tires, dual KC headlights, a Gander Mountain logo air cleaner and Mossy Oak Shadow Grass fenders and accents by Tarjac, a company that specializes in state of the art hydrographic coating processes. Upon completion, this hybrid chopper was unveiled at the grand opening of Gander Mountain’s retail store in Bowling Green, Kentucky.

Three Forks Ranch is one of the places I went by during my recent Colorado mule deer hunt with Up North Journal Pro Staffer Kevin Hutchings.  What a beautiful place!
