Guy Wilton, business office manager at the Trev Deeley Harley-Davidson dealership in Vancouver, is enthusiastic about the many charities the business actively promotes and supports.

Last summer, Trev Deeley Motorcycles supported prostate cancer research by sponsoring a Motorcycle Ride for Dad. The community came together to make the event unforgettable. Firefighters parked their trucks and crossed their ladders over the road to create an arch to hang the Ride for Dad banner, under which the group of 1,000 bikers rode.

“It was one of those memorable times,” said Wilton. “The emotion of the day was just great.” Ride for Dad raised awareness about and money for prostate cancer research.

Trev Deeley Motorcycles also does the Zajac Ranch for Children Boardroom Ride, and supports the B.C. Professional Firefighters’ Burn Fund and other causes.

Wilton believes that the recognizable and sometimes notorious Harley-Davidson brand is part of why charities like working with Trev Deeley Motorcycles.

“(Charities) want to stand out a little bit,” said Wilton. “They need to stand out a little bit.”

Wilton encourages charities to approach their local Harley dealership, as he feels that Harley-Davidson is interested in participating in charity events.

    Give your seat new life with SaddleSkins™

    Snowmobiles have special cover requirements. Extra cold weather can cause ordinary vinyl to split and crack. Travelcade SaddleSkins™ for sleds are made of a heavy-duty cold weather material that is impervious to cold down to more than minus 40 degrees. All features of the original seat are retained—rear compartment, lights, side buffers all duplicated in our replacement covers.

    SaddleSkins are available for motorcycles, ATVs and snowmobiles with original manufacturer’s fit and design. Their weather-resistant vinyl endures all sorts of riding conditions, and replaces duct tape and unsightly tears at an economical price.
