Harley Davidson drivers are a particular breed- and every rider wants to individualize his or her ride — make it stand out from the rest of the crowd.

In honour of this common need to soup up a motorcycle, Harley Davidson Canada held its first ever contest, called Spike Your Bike.

Local dealer J.H. Stewart was proud to have one of its favourite customers take home one of the top prizes for best bike in the nation.

Evelyn Valotaire of Dalhousie bought her bike from the store in Miramichi as well as all the accessories she used that earned her top prize in the Dyna model category.

"She is one of our regular customers — she bought all the parts here. She is a really good customer of ours," said general manager Christian LaFortune.
