Robin "Roko" Kocienski
Certifications
Certified by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation and the State of Colorado's MOST program.
In the fall of 2010, RoKo rode on the back of a friend's motorcycle for the first time ever, and so fervently hated being a passenger that she immediately enrolled herself into a basic rider course for the following spring so she would never have to do it again. Her first motorcycle was a well-loved 1982 Honda CM250 which quickly became her preferred method of transportation.
Since then, RoKo has ridden a myriad of motorcycles (mostly adventure touring rigs) across long distances while exploring North America, parts of southeast Asia, and eastern Europe.For several years, she worked for a motorcycle tour and rental operator as a professional motorcycle adventure addiction enabler and has guided guests around Alaska and through Baja, Mexico.
In 2021, RoKo moved to Colorado to embark on a fresh career path and immerse herself in the incredible riding available within the region, but she still considers herself a motorcycle enabler at heart. These days, she's excited to coach the new and returning riders on weekends, empowering them with techniques to be safe, skilled, competent and confident.
