My Buddy Doc has sent her a letter and this is what she said...
Hi Genevieve,
I have a friend that lives on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada. Her name is Tannis Fuhr, we all call her Flo, (Goin’ with the Flo). She started riding 3 years ago, she is 53 years old. I met Flo on my Women Who Ride forum on Delphi and soon became best of friends, almost like sisters. When I was selling my 2005 Road King, Flo bought it. Here’s the amazing part. Flo flew to Florida, stayed with me and Jerry for a week and then we formed a Conga of women and men riders from my forum to escort Flo through each State on her ride through our country back home to Canada. She made it home safely, with 5,000 miles under her belt from the ride.
A Canadian news crew was there filming Flo’s homecoming once she crossed into Canada and it was on the news up there! Flo is an inspiration to all women riders. All the riders and spirit riders (those who can’t ride in the Conga II) have bought t-shirts that say Conga II Reunion 2009 and from each shirt bought, the man that makes the shirts for us is donating 1.00 to our cause, the fight against Breast Cancer.
Flo is buying one of our Ride Like a Pro police Electra Glides in April. Yep, she’s flying back here to Tampa, staying with us for a month and riding the bike back home to Canada, again! We’ve named this journey our “Conga II Reunion”. We plan on stopping at every Harley dealership along the way. Flo also has a blog, http://flo-conga2reunion.blogspot.com that she blogs on every day with updates and how plans are coming along for our Conga II. I will be riding thru Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia and North Carolina with Flo before I have to turn around and head south while Flo continues Northward home.
Our Conga II Reunion tour kicks off on May 9th when Flo and I leave here in Hudson Florida and meet up with fellow lady riders in each state to ride with along the way. Here is the Conga II forum’s link if you care to check it out. Just thought you’d be interested in this fascinating lady. http://forums.delphiforums.com/Conga2/start
Flo has become such a skilled and confident rider since last year’s Conga, Jerry and I are going to certify her to teach our Ride Like a Pro Classes on Vancouver Island. Flo and her husband Rob will be our first franchise in Canada and we couldn’t be prouder of her.
Please let me know if you need any further information, I’ll be happy to keep you updated on the journey.
Thanks in advance for your time,
Sincerely,
Donna Palladino
I have one thing to say on this letter my friend wrote where she put me as a fasinating lady!! OMG... This is not true, what is fasinating is I just bought her bike and all these fasinating people have jumped in from state to state to escort me home, and want to do it again... It is fasinating that all of us WWR have created a Conga II and hopefully many more to come. Riding for a cause is a bonus, and I hope that we can succeed in making it even bigger and raise alot of money.
Everyone who was and will be in the Conga is fasinating even our wonderful Spirit Riders!!!
