This; …is Christopher “Pikachu” Oakley. He was around back when I first got into this game. He was at a few ECXC’s and BTSR’s back in the day. Some of you old timers might remember him. I wheeled with him many times and he helped me out. I just learned that he passed yesterday morning, January 12, 2022. My condolences go out to his family. He was a Skid Row rep back when they were the only company making skid plates for our trucks and the first guy I knew running 35’s on his IFS Xterra. I fell out of touch with him as I sadly have with many of the original Xterra OG’s but remember him fondly as a fun guy to hang out with and a good trail buddy. Every day is a blessing and every friend you make is one as well. Rest in peace my friend. Photo credit: O1SalsaX (Ken, another Xterra OG) |

Well said, Tom. Chris will definitely be missed. He was my first spotter ever offroad, at ECXC 1 in 2001 in my brand new 01 Xterra. I've been on countless trail rides with him, beach runs, meet and greets. It's amazing the friends that were made all because of a truck. Enjoy every day and go on every trail ride possible. Great friends have been made through this club and others all because of a truck. |

That's sad to hear, Tom. He was young - what happened? He was a good guy. I had only met Chris back at ECXC 2011, I think. MAYBE one more time at a Back to School Run up at Scott's (daggerdoggie) old house. |

Erik @ Skid Row is planning a memorial ride with many of Chris's old wheeling buddies. Hopefully a few of you guys might be able to make it. Info is in the fb link below. https://www.facebook.com/groups/934481094126439/ |
