For the time being, I will include anything in the “Motorcycle” category but if the information comes frequently enough it could warrant a separate category.

Hmm, maybe I need to look at the UK market for job opportunities to get involved with work that I am passionate about.

That sounds like a pretty cool deal…maybe they will give you some exclusive discounts and things like that as well over time! I’m looking forward to the new Harley news releases Are you going to make that a new category then or just group it under motorcycles? Perhaps you need the WP-dTree plugin now

Nick, it isn’t a real association in the sense that I have any real exclusive arrangement or anything. But the person that I was contacted by indicated that she would include me on any news, events, video releases, etc. from Harley-Davidson for me to share with the community.

I’d love for it become more, time will tell.

Thanks. I too have talked to who had been our VP of IT prior to the merger about this space and had even provided accounts of how other companies in our industry were leveraging this space, yet there has been no interest internally. I’m still trying though…
