I've got to change my time zone before people think I'm a zombie. It's actually 630am. Oh wait that is almost a zombie. Can't help it , I'm an early morning person. People describe me as too happy way to early in the morning but that's ok, it's how I roll.

Montana you forgot something hat Harley is known for, that rumbling vibration between your thighs. Lmaoritf. Oh it's too dam early. I got up at 5 am and made 3 different types of omlets, jack, 3 cheese, and cream cheese, bacon, toast, and Carmel macchiatos with whipped cream sprinkled w cinnamon and my husband says make mine a sandwich and my daughter in law and grandson who are staying over while my son is out of town, don't even get out of bed. Come on now. Any other day they would be up early raiding the fridge. What's up w that. Oh well, got my high protein, low carb breakfast without toast of coarse.

I didn't want to read a haters rant so I didn't check the article. Someone's out of their ever-lovin' mind if they disagree with the Kid Rock HD partnership venture. I think Kid Rock is the absolute perfect choice to partner with HD!!! Damn straight HD fits with Kid Rock's brand!!! He definitely takes it up a notch :) Cool about Jump Start stationary bike for a gal like me who'd give it a whirl (after I read the HD website boot camp info)...but still, there's something to be said for my sheer delight and thrill of sitting up close behind my man, my arms wrapped around him, my thighs hugging his, as he drives like the wind...oh, that something might have some hott and bothered sounds, too :)

Kid Rock rides Harley-Davidson, and now it's vice versa via a partnership that puts the Milwaukee-based motorcycle maker on the road behind the star's national tour.

Harley is title sponsor of Kid Rock's "Rebel Soul" tour, which kicked off Feb. 2 in Kansas City. The company is putting products and experiences on the ground at each of the 60 planned tour stops, and themed "Rebel Soul" apparel at concerts and dealerships. While Harley-Davidson won't go as far as having its logo behind the pop music polymath's performances, Rock is -- at each concert -- riding a Street Bob model onto the stage. And at the final stop on the tour, on Aug. 31, Kid Rock will perform at Harley-Davidson's 110th anniversary concert in Milwaukee.

There are several activations around the deal: there's a sweepstakes where, at each concert, someone has a chance to join the band on stage for a song, via registration at a Harley-Davidson Display Area at each venue; a national promotion dangles a factory-customized Harley motorcycle and the opportunity to play onstage with Rock at the 110th Anniversary show in Milwaukee (for that you have to go to www.h-d.com/kidrock. The winner gets to travel, with VIP treatment, to the 110th anniversary, a meet-and-greet, and a photo shoot with Rock; and there's a co-branded line of apparel bearing the Kid Rock concert theme, "I can't hear you over the rumble of my freedom."

Scott Beck, Harley-Davidson general manager, North America Marketing Operations, says that although the brand has had a lot of celebrity partnerships over the years, they have been incidental -- celebrities who happen to ride the brand and extoll its virtues. "It has been mostly organic and fed through love and appreciation of of brand. We saw a larger opportunity here. Harley-Davidson fits with Kid Rock's brand, so we saw we could take it up a notch."

Beck also says the deal came about easily because the company had a relationship with Rock already, and has had its motorcycles in his videos in the past. "We have had a partnership with him for a long time," he says, adding that the other appeal for the artist is that he has crossover appeal. "He blends country, hip hop and rock ’n’ roll, and our ownership base also crosses the entire spectrum." The timing is good because Rock has an album coming out.

Apparel is also a big part of Harley-Davidson marketing, notes Beck. "T-shirts are huge for us, so it makes sense to align something that we are good at anyway." In addition to selling these at concert venues (and at retail) Harley will have experiential programs like its "Jump Start," basically a stationary motorcycle that runs on a dyno and lets "riders" get the feel of riding and spin through gears. "We will also have bikes on display."

I couldn't get the page, but sounds like the dude was talking trash, so its better not to see it anyway. I agree with your comment that Kid is a perfect fit with Harley Davidson though, and don't know why anyone would disagree.
