Gator Harley never ceases to amaze me with the themes for their annual Women’s Day Conference. This year was “Fifty Shades of Gator H-D” which was reflected in the decorations and entertainment for the day.

What worked in the past was brought back – head mechanic, Mike Williams, and representatives from Ride Smart Florida. Ride Smart Florida had Dr. Michael Cheatham speak to the group about accidents and how to treat certain types of injuries involving bleeding. There was also a hands-on portion which earned every participant a certificate of completion for learning basic skills to control bleeding. Important skills if you are ever at the scene of an accident.

Speaker Laurie Ann Leach, owner of Zen Healthy Living, specializes in hands-on holistic healthcare. Laurie spoke about “it’s your time” and how to make that happen.

Once again, the fashion show exhibited how H-D offers clothing that is stylish for all ages and sizes. Getting a 20% discount on all motorclothes was also a bonus for attendees!

The highlight of the entire day were the male dancers who doubled as models and servers before their final show for the ladies. All I can say was you had to be there to really enjoy this eye candy!

Job well done goes to Jan Wilde Wideman and the Gator Harley staff, Gourmet Today for breakfast and lunch, and all of the vendors, speakers and our massage therapist (yep, FREE chair massages!).

See you next year!
