MILWAUKEE -- (May 14, 2007) Harley-Davidson's 2007 fundraising for the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) received a huge boost recently with the contribution of more than $1.9 million through recently held motorcycle fundraising events. These fundraising events which were organized through Harley-Davidson Motor Company, Harley-Davidson dealers, HOG chapters, MDA staff and their volunteers netted record dollars for research and MDA summer camps.

Harley-Davidson and MDA's top fundraising event the 20th annual Eastern Harley-Davidson Dealers Association Ride for Life was held in early May and raised a record $1 million. The ride, through eastern Pennsylvania had over 2,400 enthusiasts representing thirty-eight dealer members from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, New York and Virginia. Since 1988, the Eastern Harley-Davidson Dealers Association has raised over $12 million dollars for MDA.

Another top fundraising event, the 14th annual Milwaukee MDA Black-n-Blue Ball raised more than $570,000 for MDA. The Milwaukee Black-n-Blue Ball is the largest motorcycle themed ball in the country. Thirteen hundred people representing Harley-Davidson employees, dealers, suppliers, enthusiasts and MDA families attended the event.

Two other top fundraising Harley-Davidson Black-n-Blue Ball events were the Wild Boar Harley-Davidson of Grand Rapids (MI) dinner which raised $165,000 and the Motor City Harley-Davidson of Farmington Hills (MI) ball which raised $87,000.
