Kent Saxton, not sure how many of y'all have met him. I have not met him either, but he was a well know and talked about person on the MTF and was known for his contributions to the LD riding world.
Kent just completed the RAT on his 2003 Honda ST1300 and was in attendance at the MTF Founder Feast. His home is listed in our profile as Anchorage, Alaska. Kent said he planned on touring in the Texarkana area.
Anyone who ever met Kent will remember a free spirited, optimistic, always smiling- with his eyes as well as his mouth- person. If you ever talked to him you will remember him.
He was an experienced & safe rider
Many may remember that he wore a well used Blue "Stitch" and rode a silver St 1300 in the 2005 50CC W to E. and just attended the Founders Feast in Texarkana. He was to meet Gery in Lake Tahoe this week-end.
Don Braziel on the MTF says, "I signed him in from the RAT ride and when I noted his odometer, I saw that he had 128,000 miles on the bike and said that was a lot of miles. Kent laughed and said, "Not really, it's already 2 years old!" That is when he said that he bought it to ride. He was a very interesting guy."
