Default Harley fans flock to plant's open house

The sky cleared, and the 25th Anniversary Open House of Harley-Davidson's York plant seemed to escape its biggest worry: rain.
People were lined up for free 16-mile demo rides of the motorcycle-maker's new 2010 models, anxious to test out the bike they had heard about or the bike they hoped to someday afford.

By 10 a.m. Thursday, there were more than 80 people in line.

But at least metaphorically, there are still a few clouds lingering overhead for people concerned about the future of the Springettsbury Township plant.

Harley-Davidson is studying whether to relocate the plant, which it has said isn't as profitable as it could be.

People from across the East Coast attend the open house. They said they might not be able to attend if the company relocates to a Midwestern state.

Sean and Jennifer Rahilly made the trek from Palmyra, N.J., on their 14th wedding anniversary to attend the open house.

It marked their first visit, and they said they made the trip because they were afraid it would be the last time they could.

Cheers,
Speed
