Park City HD Best Buddies Event






Last Sunday I attended the Fall Ride sponsored by Intermountain Harley Davidson. It was a ride from the Salt Lake City dealership to Park City Wasatch Brew Pub parking lot on upper main here in Park City. They had a great turnout and yummy bar-b-q in the lot--weather cooperated--it was a gorgeous fall day with lots of colors. I got to meet Joe Timmons and his wife--the owner of Salt Lake HD, Park City HD, and South Valley HD shops. What a great couple--and they had a raffle with all kinds of great HD goodies to give. The event benefited the Best Buddies program here in Utah--and lots of the kids from the program got to take a ride on a Harley--talk about HUGE grins!!! They really liked the Diva Glide--and as you can see--we took a group shot with some of the Team Members! I also met Justin Hask the director of the program---looks like he has done a great job with this program and its members!!

This week I will be shipping my goods from here in Park City to Daytona Beach to get ready for the rally Oct. 16. This Friday I will ride the Diva Glide to our place in Arizona so I can ship my Diva goods from our warehouse to Daytona as well. I will be set up as I always am at the Arlen Ness store at Destination Daytona starting Oct. 16. Come see me!!

Stay tuned--ought to be a great ride!!

Viva la Diva!!

Oktoberfest at Snowbird, Utah






Last Sunday we hopped on the bikes and rode down Parley's Canyon and up Little Cottonwood Canyon to Snowbird, Utah. It was a picture perfect day....leaves were starting to turn and a little crisp in the air! These festivities last for 5 weeks to celebrate Octoberfest---and what a great setting to drink beer!! They had a huge tent set up at the base of the ski area--complete with all the Bavarian flags and lots of little tents with vendors selling everything from Bavarian pretzels to fabulous different flavors of brew. On stage in the tent an Oomp pa pa Band and lots of chicken dancing for our entertainment. We had a Bavarian lunch of weiss wurst and German potato salad along with spatzle. No meal from Germany would be complete without some apple strudel--we all shared a piece.....it wasn't as good as Bonnie's on Aspen mountain--but we had no problem eating every last crumb! I kept thinking of Klaus Obermeyer and Wolfgang and Kiki Fierek---they will be celebrating this holiday in TRUE German style!!

The ride back was gorgeous---made me wish we were going further than home to Park City--I am ready for a long one!!!!!

Check out my new cowboy hat designs--an airbrushed cross lined with Swarovski crystals--available in black with silver and cream with pink or silver.

Go to my web site for more details--under products, airbrushed.


Love needing a jacket and chaps to chase the chill !!!! Fall is upon us here in the mountains!

VIVA la DIVA!!!

Diva visits Klockwerks Team at Bonneville Salt Flats







Last Saturday we made the trek to the Bonneville Salt Flats west of Salt Lake City, UT. Some of you may have seen "The Fastest Indian" starring Anthony Hopkins--a true story about Burt Munro from New Zealand and his adventures travelling to the Salt Flats and racing his Indian motorcycle on the flats. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it!

We drove right on the flats--and eerie feeling --could have been on white white sand or snow--kept reminding my self it was salt! Felt like Ice Road Truckers!

Laura and Brian Klock and team and crew were all set up for the week to kick some ass and set some land speed records. The team had 4 entrants--all women! Laura, and her 2 daughters (Erika and Kaylee) and Big Joe's wife , Michelle. I had gotten to know this gang while staying with them during Sturgis--so it was fun to see them in action on the flats. They had raced all week and this was the last day--after racing , the crew has to break down the motors on the bikes so the officials can measure each piece of the motor to make sure it is the class engine they were entered. Laura broke the record (which was hers from last year) by clocking 153.906 mph on her Road Glide Bagger! They have also set a record for being the only "Mother /Daughters" team on the salt. All four women set records--make sure to check out their web site to read more about the week.

We also ran into Jay Allen--the owner of the Broken Spoke Saloons and Campgrounds--he was also racing for the week.

Some of the contraptions that were custom built were pretty amusing to see ---and some really vintage motorcycles. There was also a solar powered motorcycle--tons of sun out there for that one!!

I am so proud of the Team Klockwerk Racing Divas--I told them I need to put crystals on their bikes so they will go even faster!


Fall is on it's way--leaves are turning up here in the mountains--stay tuned as we hit Octoberfest at Snowbird!!

Viva las Divas!!
