HARLEY-DAVIDSON CREATES SPECIAL PROGRAM TO HELP RIDERS SHARE THEIR PASSION–– Share Your Spark Provides Tips on Being, and Finding a Good Mentor –
MILWAUKEE (January 13, 2009) ? The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines mentor as a ?trusted counselor or guide.? Mentors can come from various backgrounds and ages, but all share a common goal of sharing their passion with others. So as the nation celebrates National Mentoring Month , Harley-Davidson is encouraging riders to share their passion for the open road with others through a special mentoring program called Share Your Spark.
Share Your Spark: A Guide to Mentoring is a tool kit the Motor Company developed for current and aspiring riders featuring information on how to be a resource and support system to others during their motorcycling journey. The mentoring kit includes information for both potential mentors and mentees, including a DVD showcasing tips on how to become or find a mentor, stories from successful mentoring experiences, a special Share Your Spark pin and a planning and reflection guide.
“The mentoring experiences is empowering for both parties involved,” said Leslie Prevish, market outreach manager, Harley-Davidson. “For the mentor, they get to share their passion with someone who aspires to live the same dream they do. For the mentee, they learn through the collective experiences of their guide. Of course, the mentoring relationship also leads to many life-lasting friendships.?
Prevish adds that Share Your Spark is not just for women, but the Motor Company?s research indicates many women have expressed their desire to be ? and find ? a good riding mentor.
Over the past several years, women have increasingly embraced the sport of motorcycling ? seeking the freedom and adventure associated with the open road, polished chrome and a sweet sounding engine. In fact, the number of women who have purchased new Harley-Davidson motorcycles has tripled over the past 20 years, with women now accounting for nearly 12 percent of new Harley-Davidson motorcycle purchases.

NEW BIKER FICTION NOVEL DISCOVERED–In April of 07, I was almost killed by an idiot in an SUV that hit me head on while riding on my Harley. During the year it took me to recover, I wrote a biker fiction novel about a biker couple from Ky.
It’s a suspense thriller adventure about good verses evil, and it shows how today’s bikers are unsung heroes. It was published and released in Oct of 2008. The book is called ‘Thundering Hearts:The Razor’s Edge’.
Please check out my book’s website. It is for sale and I need the money to pay my outstanding medical bills. My website is www.freewebs.com/kennettparker
I also am donating ten percent of all royalties to the Biker for Babies campaign.

FROM THE BIKERNET MEDICAL CENTER CASE FILES–The doctor, after an examination, sighed and said, ‘I’ve some bad news. You have cancer, and you’d best put your affairs in order.’
The woman was shocked, but managed to compose herself and walk into the Waiting room where her daughter had been waiting.
‘Well daughter, we women celebrate when things are good, and we celebrate when things don’t go so well. In this case, things aren’t well. I have cancer. Let’s head to the club and have a martini.’
After four martinis, the two were feeling a little less somber. There were some laughs and more martinis. They were eventually approached by some of the woman’s old friends, who were curious as to what the two were celebrating. The woman told her friends they were drinking to her impending end. “I’ve been diagnosed with AIDS.”
The friends were aghast, gave the woman their condolences and beat a hasty retreat.
After the friends left, the woman’s daughter leaned over and whispered, ‘Momma, I thought you said you were dying of cancer, and you just told your friends you were dying of AIDS! Why did you do that??’
Because I don’t want any of those bitches sleeping with your father after I’m gone. And THAT, my friends, is what is called ‘Putting Your Affairs In Order.’
