SORRY FELLAS, THIS MOTORCYCLE GARAGE IS FOR LADIES ONLY– CHICAGO (June 20, 2007) – Harley-Davidson is opening the metaphorical garage door to thousands of women interested in motorcycling. Over the past decade, women have increasingly embraced the sport of motorcycling – seeking the freedom and empowerment associated with riding solo on the open road. Women represent 10% of the U.S. motorcycle population, and nearly 12% of new Harley-Davidson purchasers are women. The Garage Party events are one way that Harley-Davidson reaches out to women to encourage them to learn more about motorcycling.

In 2006, Harley-Davidson piloted the Garage Party concept with its dealer network, and the response was so successful that the Company updated the program and recently launched a new section on the Women & Motorcycling Web site (www.harley-davidson.com/womenriders) devoted to Garage Parties and upcoming women’s events.

Women-only Garage Parties are being held at dealerships across the country. On June 14, Harley-Davidson held a Chicagoland Garage Party at the distinctive Museum of Contemporary Art Warehouse hosted by Karen Davidson, creative director of general merchandise and great-granddaughter of founder William A. Davidson. Several area dealerships supported the event, including Wild Fire Harley-Davidson, Chi-Town Harley-Davidson and Illinois Harley-Davidson.

At the end of the evening, one lucky Chicago woman, Stacy Baustert, won a certificate to learn to ride through the Harley-Davidson Rider’s Edge New Rider Course (www.ridersedge.com), as well as a trip to Femmoto (www.femmoto.com) in Las Vegas, October 5-7, to demo ride Harley-Davidson and Buell motorcycles after she earns her license. She is planning to bring her mother, who is a rider.

Intimidation-Free Zone

The Harley-Davidson Garage Party events provide an inviting environment for women to learn more about motorcycling and to meet other women who are interested in riding. Party guests can expect activities that will be both entertaining and informational with topics including a review of the basic motorcycle controls, how to customize a motorcycle’s ergonomics and how to choose proper riding gear.

“Women ride for the same reasons as men – freedom, adventure and individuality, but many women approach the learning process in a different way,” said Leslie Prevish, product communications manager for Harley-Davidson Motor Company. “Women tend to spend more time investigating the sport prior to getting involved, and many enjoy learning in a group setting. Garage Party events give women an interactive way to gather information and have fun doing it.”

The Party Plan

Garage Party event attendees are typically organized into small groups to get their first taste of the camaraderie that goes along with riding. Groups visit four informational stations, including:

‘Motorcycle Orientation’ to learn the basics of motorcycle controls and discover key differences between Harley-Davidson and Buell motorcycle families.

‘MotorClothes’ to discover the important attributes needed in motorcycle gear.

‘Customization’ to learn how to customize a motorcycle to reflect a rider’s personal style and ergonomic needs.

‘Self-Service’ to show that just about anyone can handle the weight of a motorcycle.

Between stations, women get the chance to interact with each other, and hear from women who are already living their motorcycle dreams.

“Garage Party events give women a no-pressure chance to learn, socialize and ask questions,” added Karen Davidson. “We’re excited to provide events like this for women who are looking for information about getting into the sport but just aren’t sure how to do it.”

For some women, learning to ride is a celebration of a new life stage and a chance to show their individuality. Others have been passengers for years and decided that now is the time to grab life by the handlebars and embrace the sense of freedom, adventure and individuality that comes with riding.

Any woman who is looking to take the next step and learn more about motorcycling should contact her local dealer to find a Garage Party event taking place in her neighborhood – but space is limited, so interested women should reserve their spot early.

SIGN UP TODAY, BECOME AN ILLEGAL ALIEN AND BENEFIT– Becoming Illegal (Actual letter from an Iowa resident and sent to his senator)

The Honorable Tom Harkin
731 Hart Senate Office Building
Phone (202) 224 3254
Washington DC, 20510

Dear Senator Harkin,

As a native Iowan and excellent customer of the Internal RevenueService, I am writing to ask for your assistance. I have contactedthe Department of Homeland Security in an effort to determine theprocess for becoming an illegal alien and they referred me to you.

My primary reason for wishing to change my status from U.S. Citizento illegal alien stems from the bill which was recently passed by theSenate and for which you voted. If my understanding of this bill’sprovisions is accurate, as an illegal alien who has been in theUnited States for five years, all I need to do to become a citizen isto pay a $2,000 fine and income taxes for three of the last fiveyears (according to Lou Dobbs they’re not forced to pay any back taxes). I know a good deal when I see one and I am anxious to get theprocess started before everyone figures it out.

Simply put, those of us who have been here legally have had to payyears of taxes in return for paying a $2,000 fine. Is there any waythat I can apply to be illegal retroactively? This would yield anexcellent result for me and my family because we paid heavy taxes in2004 and 2005.

Additionally, as an illegal alien I could begin using the localemergency room as my primary health care provider. Once I havestopped paying premiums for medical insurance, my accountant figuresI could save almost $10,000 a year.

Another benefit in gaining illegal status would be that my daughterwould receive preferential treatment relative to her law schoolapplications, as well as “in-state” tuition rates for many collegesthroughout the United States for my son.

Lastly, I understand that illegal status would relieve me of theburden of renewing my driver’s license and making those burdensomecar insurance premiums. This is very important to me given that Istill have college age children driving my car.

If you would provide me with an outline of the process to becomeillegal (retroactively, if possible) and copies of the necessaryforms, I would be most appreciative. Thank you for your assistance.

Your Loyal Constituent,
D. Ruppert
