Million Mile Motorcycle Event A Success
Dave Zien honors Attorney Michael Hupy by riding him into Hal's Harley-Davidson
as his bike turns over the record breaking million mile mark.
The million miles on a single motorcycle challenge has been met. Dave Zien crossed over into the record books once again with this amazing accomplishment.
“I could not have reached my goal of one million miles on my 1991 FXRT without the assistance and generosity of Michael Hupy and Hupy and Abraham law firm,” Zien said. Hupy and Abraham, S.C. was the sole sponsor of the final leg of the million mile quest and also sponsored the “Landing Party” at Hal’s Harley-Davidson and Buell in New Berlin, Wisconsin on April 4, 2009.
ABATE of Wisconsin Director of Public Relations, Dave "Chubby" Charlebois,
attended the "Landing Party" program.
With less than 3,500 miles to go as of March 30, 2009, Zien decided to complete his final leg by riding to Florida and back, landing at Hal’s Harley-Davidson on April 4th. Joining him on the trip was Tony “Pan” Sanfelipo, Sturgis Freedom Fighter Hall of Fame member, founder of ABATE of Wisconsin and a 16-year employee of Hupy and Abraham, S.C. Also riding with Zien was Dan Stephans, an Iron Butt competitor and long distance rider in his own right.
Dave's odometer turned to all zeroes as he arrived at the landing party on
April 4, 2009, at Hal's Harley-Davidson in New Berlin, Wisconsin.
The return trip was full of adventure, including tornado warnings and flash floods near Nashville, Tennessee. The four riders rolled into Kegel’s Harley-Davidson in Rockford, Illinois, at 3:15 pm on Friday, April 3rd. After some interviews with local press, they returned to Wisconsin with only 70 miles left to go before Zien’s odometer registered 00000.0 signifying one million miles.
MRF President, Kirk "Hardtail" Willard thanks Dave Zien on behalf of all he's
done for biker's rights as ABATE of Wisconsin Executive Director, Greg Rodd,
ABATE of Wisconsin Founder and Hupy and Abraham, S.C. employee,
Tony "Pan" Sanfelipo, and Dave Zien listen.
On Saturday, April 4th, the four once again threw their legs over the saddle and rode around the countryside of Waukesha County, arriving at a staging area with 2 miles left to go to reach the million mile goal. It was calculated earlier that the staging area was 2 miles from Hal’s Harley-Davidson. As the Patriot Guard Riders formed their escort with bikes adorned with American Flags, Attorney Michael Hupy was invited to ride the final 2 miles of this 18 year journey as a tribute and recognition of all he does for motorcyclists, the motorcycle community and his generous sponsorship of Zien’s world record quest. With Hupy and Abraham, S.C. partner, Jason Abraham riding next to Zien, and Tony Pan flanking the other side, the group rode out with an escort of over 40 motorcycles. The calculations were accurate as the odometer registered 00000.0 just as Zien rode the bike onto the stage.
Waukesha County Executive Dan Vrakas presents Dave Zien with a proclamation
while gubernatorial candidate, Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker, awaits
his turn. Walker is expected to announce his candidacy for Governor of Wisconsin
on April 28, 2009.
Dave Zien publicly thanked Hupy and Abraham, S.C. at the beginning of the ceremony, once again reminding everyone of the contributions to the motorcycle community that the law firm so generously gives. Then it was time to honor Dave Zien. He received awards, proclamations and accolades from Accident Scene Management, Inc. and Rescue Riders, the County Executives of Waukesha and Milwaukee, the Iron Butt Association and finally the Harley-Davidson Motor Company. Harley-Davidson invited everyone to come to the Juneau Ave. facility on Monday, April 6th, to witness Dave Zien being presented with the keys to a new 2009 Road Glide.
Dave and Sue Zien leave the Harley Motor Company on his new 2009 Road Glide
which was presented to him on behalf of his world record million miles on a
single Harley-Davidson.
His 1991 FXRT is now officially retired, never to be ridden again, and will be on permanent display at the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum and Hall of Fame in South Dakota. Shortly before he took ownership of his new bike, Zien offered several people a chance to ride this million mile record motorcycle. Attorney Jason Abraham, one of the owners of Hupy and Abraham, S.C., accepted that offer and became one of only a few who have the privilege of saying they rode a record breaking Harley-Davidson.
