I grew up in Levittown, PA, the eldest sibling with two brothers. I enjoyed playing softball and soccer as a child & young adult. When Jerry and I met, we liked to bowl in the Beach Blanket Bowling League where we went on a few all-inclusive vacations before starting a family. I worked for 5 years with the Bucks County Dept. of Mental Health & Retardation, and 28 years with Bristol-Myers Squibb Pharmaceutical Company, before retiring in 2017, where I moved to Auburndale, FL. My husband, Jerry and I have 3 children: Brian, Kelly and Eric. Now I enjoy riding with my husband Jerry on our 2021 HD Road Glide Ultra and 2000 HD Dyna Wide Glide, and singing in the choir at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church in Lakeland.

Originally from British Columbia in Western Canada my wife and I relocated to Lakeland with a work transfer in 2005.  I purchased my first street licensed motorcycle in 1971 while still in High School.  In 2006 I purchased  my first “new” Harley Davidson at Lakeland HD and joined Polk County HOG.  I am now retired and currently ride a 2024 Road Glide.  I enjoy all the friends and great people I have met through the Polk County H.O.G. Club and try to ride at least three times a week.

I was born and raised in Auburndale, FL. I married my high school sweetheart, Thrasey (Rooster), in 1983. I retired in 2020 after working 40 years as a high school secretary with The Polk County School Board.

We have two successful adult children who married wonderful spouses.

We have four sweet granddaughters and one adorable grandson who fill our lives with love and laughter.

When I was growing up I was not an outdoor, adventurous, bike riding kid. So my love for riding motorcycles started when we purchased our first “big” motorcycle in 2000. Thrasey had several smaller motorcycles before then that I wouldn’t ride with him!

I love riding passenger because I enjoy taking pictures and videoing the scenery while having the wind surrounding me. I’ve enjoyed countless rides in many states over the years and I look forward to riding and making fun memories with our Polk County HOG family!

I was born and raised in Auburndale, FL and graduated from Auburndale High School where I met my best friend and the love of my life, Kay. We married and I began my law enforcement career. It wasn’t long before I became interested in motorcycles because a few of my co-workers rode bikes. I bought my first motorcycle, a 1992 Yamaha Virago 750 .. I was hooked. Over the years we have had many makes and models of motorcycles and finally bought our first Harley Davidson in 2016 .. a brand new 2017 Ultra Limited. Unfortunately, the oil pump went out and scored the engine after 6 months. Lakeland Harley took good care of us. We traded it in and upgraded to a 2017 CVO Limited. We rode this one for a couple of years until I fell in love with my current Harley .. a 2019 CVO Limited. Kay rides with me a lot and is very active in the motorcycle lifestyle. Together, we have rode hundreds of thousands of miles over 30 plus years, all over the country. Since I’m getting older, we decided to have our CVO Limited converted to a trike. We had a California Side Car Daytona Trike Kit installed in November of 2021, we love it. It is much more comfortable riding two up for us. Since I still love riding on two wheels, one up, I have a 2023 Harley Davidson CVO Road Glide also. I enjoy riding it with the group when Kay isn’t able to go.

We have two children who are grown with their own families, they live close by. 2016 was a great year! I bought my first Harley, I retired from the Auburndale Police Department as a Lieutenant with 32 years of service, and we had our first grand baby! We now have five grandkids and adore them all and love spending time with them!

We love our Polk County HOG family!

Grill Master

My wife Barbara and I moved to Lakeland, Florida from Philadelphia in April, 2019. We are both long time members of national HOG as well as local members of Bucks County, Pennsylvania HOG chapter where I served in several different officers’ position. Before my retirement I worked many years in the service department at the Brian’s Harley-Davidson dealership in Philadelphia before subsequently moving to Lakeland. Our first order of business upon our arrival in Lakeland, was to locate and join the local HOG chapter where we quickly made many new friends. It didn’t take long for us to become active and involved in Polk County HOG. I became the Safety Officer and not long after I became the Head Road Captain where I got to plan and organize great rides along with a great bunch of other Road Captains and ride leaders. Most recently I served as the Asst. Director and now I am the Chapter Grill Master where I organize our grilling events each month at the dealership. I have owned several Harley-Davidson motorcycles over the years with my current ride being a 2020 Street Glide Special which I plan on racking up some serious miles on. I am honored to be part of the GREATEST HOG CHAPTER IN FLORIDA along with a great bunch of EPIC people! Be safe. Ride safe, and remember to keep your head on a swivel while out there on the road. Peace.
