Meet The Returning Rider # 899 Richard Eastman



 

I'm 55 and reside in Kimball Michigan. Married 30 years to my high school sweetheart Kristina. Two daughters, one son and three grandkids. This will be my 5th Hoka Hey Challenge. Starting and finishing in 2018, 2020, 2022 and 2024 with each year bettering myself. Looking forward to the 2026 challenge.

 

 

After you do your first Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge it becomes an addiction. Its an honor to be in the company of so many elite riders and a privilege to ride in it. You learn a lot about yourself and your abilities and strive to make the next even better. My advice to the new riders; Go into the challenge with your eyes wide open and don't overthink it. Don't over pack, eat when you’re hungry, rest when you’re tired, don't cheat yourself and go into it with the mindset of being able to ride it yourself. Ride your ride!! 


 

I'm not the greatest and fundraising but looking to support local non profits with my ride. Details forthcoming on my social media.
