This past weekend was the open house at the York Harley Davidson Vehicle Operations plant. The weather was cold and wet and, as a result, attendance was significantly down. Area hotels reported numerous cancellations. The plant carried on with their festivities the best they could under the circumstances but, one of their big draws, the demo rides, had to be cancelled for much of the event. There were still plant tours (the other really big draw) and dealer merchandise available for those that braved the elements.
The local Harley Davidson dealer, Laugerman’s, also carried on. They had food and merchandise vendors in their parking lot despite the weather. One of their vendors, Wyked Illuzionz, Custom LED Lights for Motorcycles, was a hit. Customers waited in the rain to get their bikes lit up. Wyked Illuzionz technicians kept working through each passing storm. They were willing to hang in there as long as their customers were willing to hang in there. This is part of what makes them the success they are and why their customers turn into friends.
When all was said and done, the weekend proved to be a success for Wyked Illuzionz. Look for them at their next scheduled event, Thunder in the Streets (a/k/a Sanford Bikefest) in Sanford FL from October 10-12, 2008.
