Doing something completely different could not be happier!! Over the last month or so I have hinted about buying a business. Selling my bikes, selling my house, and selling a kidney were all necessary in order to come up with the right amount of capital. That being said, the purchase completed this week and my partner and I are proud owners of the Fun Center in Durango!
Not familiar with the Fun Center? It is the largest motorcycle dealership in the four corners area. Our brands include Polaris, Kawasaki, Suzuki, KTM, BRP, and Arctic Cat. Between these brands, it represents some of the most exciting on and off-road machinery in the industry!
To say that we are excited would be an understatement!! My wife and are in the throws of moving and for her, changing jobs but staying in Corporate America. My partner and I, Pete Tabor, plan on taking all the positives and negatives from being avid consumers and sponsored riders into this new endeavor. Like many of you, we have had both positive and negative experiences with dealerships and in our minds we have a plan on how to make a difference. To state it bluntly, I have always wanted a relationship with my dealership and we plan to do just that with our customers.
This is a dream come true for us and we hope to keep in close contact with many of the friends we have met through this forum. The CSC has been a big part of my life since moving to CO back in 2006 and I look forward to giving back. If you ever need anything, you know who to call. We are on Facebook and plan to do a lot of events throughout the summer. And if by chance you find yourself in Durango, stop in and say hello!
