Wisconsin's Next Governor Promotes Tourism by Motorcycle

For the seventh consecutive year, Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker led a group of avid motorcyclists on his annual Executive’s Ride.  And for the seventh consecutive year, Hupy and Abraham, S.C. lead investigator, Tony “Pan” Sanfelipo was his Head Road Captain.  Tony was chosen as Head Road Captain because of his vast experience in marshalling rides like this, specifically his Head Road Captain duties since 1995 for the Tommy Thompson Governor’s Ride.  To help promote a safe ride, Hupy and Abraham, S.C. provided free Conspicuity vests for the Road Guards with the Watch for Motorcycles message on them.

The group ride started out in Milwaukee with executives from Air Tran riding up front with County Executive Scott Walker. Also joining the ride was State Representative Mark Honadal and Waukesha County Executive Dan Vrakas. Visit Milwaukee president, Paul Upchurch, joined the Air Tran riders along with Congressional Medal of Honor Recipient, Gary Wetzel.  The weather was perfect for riding the tree lined roads of southern Wisconsin.  There isn’t a better way to tour this state than the seat of a motorcycle. The brand of choice for most riders was Harley-Davidson, no surprise there since Harley is located in Wisconsin, at least for the time being. It’s hoped the state can find a way to keep Harley-Davidson here.  The company is struggling and the current tax situation, which has forced other companies to move, is becoming an increasing problem for Harley-Davidson.

Over 100 bikers rolled their throttles through southern Wisconsin, Rockford, Illinois and Dubuque, Iowa, while Walker spoke to local media about the attractions in Milwaukee County, like our award winning County Parks, winner in 2009 of the National Gold Medal Award for Excellence in the Field of Park and Recreation Management.

The riders stayed mostly on rural roads and highways, witnessing the beauty Wisconsin’s small towns have to offer.  The rich scenery along the Great River Road, homemade ice cream in Hudson, healthy cranberry delights in Warren and more.  There was an abundance of unusual attractions along the way, including the Fred Smith Concrete Park in Phillips and the rescued Bald Eagle that greeted the riders at the visitor’s center in Prescott.  The group even ventured into St. Paul, Minnesota and Menominee, Michigan, making this a five state tour to promote tourism in south eastern Wisconsin.

We wish Scott Walker all the best in his bid for governor. It would be great to have another motorcycle riding governor in Wisconsin. That could prove very beneficial to motorcycle awareness campaigns, helmet choice, funding for safety programs and efforts to keep Harley-Davidson in Wisconsin.
