NASCAR 60th Anniversary Motorcycle Series Unveiled
DAYTONA BEACH, FL (May 27, 2008) - Bruce Rossmeyer, CEO of 15 Harley-Davidson locations - including the World's Largest Harley-Davidson dealership located at Bruce Rossmeyer's Destination Daytona, has teamed up with NASCAR to create the all new, one-of-a-kind officially licensed "NASCAR 60th Anniversary Motorcycle Series brought to you by Destination Daytona."

To commemorate NASCAR's 60th anniversary, Bruce Rossmeyer, in conjunction with NASCAR, is creating 60 custom motorcycles, each individually serialized #1 through #60. Each motorcycle in the officially licensed NASCAR 60th Anniversary Motorcycle Series brought to you by Destination Daytona will capture the true essence of NASCAR - a sport that combines design, technology and speed. While racing industry insiders have first dibs on this exclusive motorcycle, a limited number will be available for public sale starting May 28, 2008, with motorcycle #60 presented to NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Kyle Petty. Petty will auction off Motorcycle #60 for charity in July during the Coke Zero 400 (4:30 p.m. ET, TNT). The auction will take place on-line through the NASCAR Foundation's web site as well as on-site kiosks that will be located outside the Daytona Speedway July 3rd - 5th.

Rossmeyer and NASCAR have also partnered with renowned NASCAR artist Sam Bass, who will be creating a unique painting that will be included in the purchase price of each of the Officially Licensed NASCAR 60th Anniversary Motorcycle brought to you by Destination Daytona. Each motorcycle will be sold for $48,600 and will include - in addition to the commissioned painting - an authentic, limited edition NASCAR 60th Anniversary leather jacket, an invitation for the private VIP motorcycle delivery event at the Coke Pavilion at Destination Daytona on July 3rd, two (2) tickets to the Coke Zero 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup race on July 5th as well as special access passes. Each motorcycle in the series will be created by Thunder Mountain Custom Cycles and distributed by Bruce Rossmeyer's Daytona Harley-Davidson. The officially licensed NASCAR 60th Anniversary Motorcycle Series brought to you by Destination Daytona was unveiled the week leading up to the Sprint All-Star Race in Charlotte, North Carolina on May 17th.
