Back From Sturgis

Could there be a better time to start off this blog than after Sturgis? Doubtful. The big blue semi pulled back into Burlington late Sunday night, after a successful rally and the long drive back to Wisconsin. It always seems like the trip home is quicker than the trip out to South Dakota, but this time faster back was better. Rich Colano, the owner and president, had acquired a couple of pretty good scrapes from a bike accident, and getting home sooner was the best idea.

The whole crew (Rich, Chick, J.P., Justin J., Justin M. and Vito) was pumped after seeing the enthusiastic crowds at Sturgis, and talking about the products that the bikers liked. One that really stood out was our Adjustable Passenger Mounts with Floorboards for Harley FLT and FLH models, among others. We could barely keep up with orders and installations, especially with Tri Glides. The relocation arms and boards help keep the passenger's legs from going to sleep, and aid getting in, out, and off the Tri Glide passenger seat. The ladies just had to try them and they were immediately sold on the additional comfort.

Another success at at the rally (our semi was parked at the busy Sturgis liquor store, owned by the town and the only one in town,) was the Flatfoot Wide Pegs. Billet aluminum with plenty of room for your boot, and very popular with riders with the need for more space.

The sights and sounds of this year's Sturgis are memories, and photos are coming soon. The Road Crew is already getting ready for the upcoming rallies. More about those later.
