Sumner Update

Post by ris »

Sumner said to tell you’ll hi. He is doing fine. Someone mentioned recently that he hadn’t posted since the site came back up. He said traveling somewhere to launch the Mac 26 S was getting old. He lives in Utah. For those of you new here he was and is an amazing guy. He and Chinook are two of the guys who have spent a lot of time in big water in their Macs. His website is purplesagetradingpost.com He is selling his 26 S next spring if anyone is interested. He is still riding dirt bikes and has a 650 something touring bike. He also just finished building a camping trailer that carries his dirt bike on the front and his wife’s 4 wheeler on the back. He like all of the other Mac owners We have met is a really nice guy. Check out his website. His mods are under MacGregor 26S Index on his website. Sumner didn’t even buy his Mac until he was over 65 in 2009!!!
