Harley Davidson contacts IHG

The other day I logged into MySpace and found a message from Kelly Yahr the Community Outreach Coordinator at Harley Davidson. She said that she had been surfing the web and found my blog. I was like...could this really be true? She requested that I send her my e-mail addy, so I did and she sent me a link to a free ebook geared toward women riders. The e-mail subject line was Harley Davidson and The Many Thoughts of Harley Girl. I must admit it gave me goosebumps. I had to smile when I saw the e-book because it's the perfect thing for B. B. right now with her new beautiful Sporty and her journey toward not having to be a backrest anymore!!! :)

Here is another link for women riders and passengers http://harley-davidson.com/womenriders.

Hopefully I can grow my relationship with Harley Davidson and they'll share special stuff with me so that I can pass it on to all of you. I'm crossing my fingers and toes! I'm actually pretty darn excited. Thanks for finding my blog Kelly and for contacting me!! :)

On another note...If Joker and D-Day read this...Have tons of fun guys! May Joker and the rest of the Blackstone HOG family, that is making the trip with him to the 105th, have a safe one!! I can't wait to hear all about your experiences and everything you see. I bet we'll be ROTFL when they get back and post their many tales!

Have a great week everyone! Even though the rest of us can't make the 105th we can still celebrate it...go for a ride...come home...pop in some Skynard...and have a beer or two...and give a salute to the motorcycle company that we do so LOVE! All Hail Harley Davidson!!!!
Good Night!

Holy Moly...One week to go!

I have to tell you...I'm freaking excited about leaving next Saturday for Sturgis! I went in 2004 and I was excited then but I think this year I'm even more excited because I've been there once, know what to expect and can totally enjoy every minute of the experience this time. When I went in 2004 it was literally the first rally I'd ever been too...yes, I start bigger then big! LOL The first night at the Buffalo Chip campground was one loud sleepless night and the motorcycle loving Harley Girl was wondering what the hell she'd gotten herself into. Trust me...if you are into extreme wildness stay at the Chip. And if you think you've seen it all...I'm sure you'll see something brand new there.

I'm going to try to blog from my phone on the trip but the only way it will work is if there is a signal outta Sturgis so cross your fingers!!! If you don't hear from me...don't worry...I'll take pictures and post them when I return! I seriously wish all my blogger buds were going to be out there too!

Get a Free T-Shirt at Sturgis

I thought it was pretty cool that some guy named Harold from Progressive Insurance read my blog...means I'm getting out there to the masses! YAY! My dream is to be walking down the street and someone looks at me and says...HEY...aren't you IowaHarleyGirl! That would be a trip! :) Anyway...Harold sent me this link to print out a coupon for a free SuckerPunch Sallys T-shirt. The catch is you have to go to Sturgis to get it. So if you are riding out to the BIG Rally print out the coupon and go to Thunder Road and pick up your free shirt!

Happy New Year!

Ok...Can you believe this...I'm 39 and my folks are in their 60's. They got home at 2:15 am and I was asleep by 11:30. How funny is that? WOW!

Last year was a rough year for Dan and Me and I'm hoping that 2008 will be much better! I'm thinking positive that it will be!!

Last night I was watching Dick Clark's New Year's Rock'n Eve and I have to say...Dick made me cry. I wish this dear man would face the truth that he needs to just hand it over to Ryan and call it a day. It was so depressing seeing someone that I grew up with so...I don't even know how to describe it. It just made me sad. You want to remember things a certain way and when they change it can be depressing.

I'm super excited because my new Niece will be here in a few months! Little "Pinky" Ketels will be born in March! I can't wait to introduce her to the happy shiny world of Harley Davidson! LOL!

Wishing everyone that follows my blog a very Happy and Healthy New Year! Maybe this year we'll run into each other out on the road. Hopefully not literally but you knew that right!??!! LOL
