For Immediate Release

The Garage-Girls Ultimate Biker Makeover Winners Announced

2010 Carlisle Bike Fest: July 23 - 25 at the Carlisle PA Fairgrounds

Thursday, June 17, 2010

Garage-Girls and Carlisle Events are pleased to announce the winners of the 2010 Ultimate Biker Makeover . . . runner-up is Judy Reed and the grand prize winner is David Bardwell.

The 2010 Carlisle Bike Fest will mimic the thousands of bikes that will be parked on the Carlisle PA Fairgrounds, July 23-25, in two ways: diversity and excitement. Bike Fest was created to be an event for riders of V-twins, metrics, sport bikes, choppers, custom cruisers, and fighters - both import and domestic - and everything in between. If your passion is motorcycles, Bike Fest will have a weekend full of excitement to enjoy, no matter what you ride.

One of the many scheduled activities that will both entertain and reward is the Garage-Girls Ultimate Biker Makeover. The two contestants were chosen, along with Kathy Redman, from a group of over 20 submissions as the most deserving of an Ultimate Biker Makeover. The final 3 were then placed on www.garage-girls.com for public voting. The final 3 all had compelling stories of why they were in need of the makeover, but after the public vote, the 2 winners have been chosen. Runner-up Judy Reed is a 52-year-old rider that desperately needs help fitting her bike to herself. Grand prize winner David Bardwell has been down on his luck after losing his job at a Chevrolet dealership and has been forced to sell his house and possessions to care for his family.

Both winners will be getting prizes including a new riding jacket and gloves from Z1R, a Vega helmet, HD Footwear boots, a cleaning kit from Wizards Products, a one-year subscription to Ironworks Magazine, a case of synthetic oil from Spectro Oils, a pair of riding glasses from 7 Eye, t-shirt from VaVaVroom, and a technology case from Otterbox.
David, the grand prize winner, will also be scoring parts for his motorcycle such as accessories from Kuryakyn, a set of AVON Tires, a Mustang Motorcycle seat, and lots of other goodies.

Mark the date and make the ride to the 2010 Carlisle Bike Fest, July 23-25.
