Kari , MotorClothes® Merchandise Manager   a/k/a MotorClothes®  Merchandise Diva How long have you worked for H-D®?  Working on 12 years How did you end up working at a H-D® Dealership? I left a dead end job interview passed the Bar and shield and did a u-turn into a career. What bike(s) do you own? A A 1999 Fatboy® How long have you been riding? I had my first passenger ride at about 9 years old with my dad and started riding my own bike in 2000. What was your first bike? A DynaTM Low Rider Who first got you interested in motorcycling? A Group of riders cruising down the highway headed to Sturgis.  I had to know what was so great about riding that so many people would ride to one place. Hearing the rumble and seeing the wave of bikers awakened that little riding monster within.  Over the years there has been a string of influences from friends who rode, to family who attended rallies, to my mechanic husband.  Riding is in the blood.  It is an internal rhythm that just beats stronger the more you pursue the sport. What is your best memory of riding?  It’s a million little things that I would never have known that I could appreciate if I had never gotten on a bike to begin with. Riding is a total sensory experience from the smell of the earth, the rush of the air and the roar of the motor. I’ve enjoyed rides when the air was so crisp that it was as if everything had been washed clean and I’ve ridden down a darkened country road at midnight, smelled a skunk in the field and smiled at the strength of the aroma.  The only thing that matters is the experience. The worst? Selling my Shovelhead What was the longest “iron butt” ride you have been on? About 3 months after I learned to ride I took a trip from Atlanta to New Orleans.  Have you ever done a burn out? Nope. I like my clutch intact and my tires with tread on them! If money was no object and you could do anything to your bike - what would you do? Track down Belle "Today’s the day to make your riding dream a reality.  Don’t wait for later because later never comes."
