Calgary H-D

We were invited to a fun little event at Calgary Harley Davidson the other night, which actually wasn't so little, but did meet the fun criteria. 

With Spring fast approaching and motorcycles being on everyone's mind, this was a chance to get together with like minded souls, catch up on what's going on, and talk about future plans for the riding season.

With some great food courtesy of CHOP and some tasty beer samples from Brewsters, we got to mix and mingle with a lot of friends involved in our motorcycle community plus meet a few new people, not to mention see a couple of the new 2017 Harleys. 
How about that new 'candy apple red' or the 'all blacked out' Road King Special.  

We even got to meet Kelly Fedorwich, Darkside Drag Racing's diva in a dragster. Kelly is working toward being Canada's fastest female and sponsorship from Calgary Harley Davidson helps the cause.

I also got to spend some time hanging out with artist Taylor Odynski, a talented illustrator who has a knack for capturing the heart and soul of your favourite ride. Taylor did a 'live' painting of  a bike and gave it to me at the end of the evening, which was very kind. Keep an eye out for Taylor at several motorcycle events this summer,  like the Ride stop n Go and BlueCircle organized International Female Ride Day event on May 6th, as well as Two Wheel Sunday on June 4th. 
Good times ahead!!

We didn't really have a booth but did set up a table to give away our usual swag

Lot so bikes and lots of bodies
Brewsters had an assortment of  craft beers and these lovely pin-up girl volunteers donated all their tips to charity
