Welcome to the section of our website that focuses on things we think will interest both local readers and visitors to our province.  

Here you will find reader favourites; reports of their Rave Rides and comments on their Island vacations (Remember there are prizes to be awarded at the end of each riding season for best submissions!) Our staff also offer reviews of eateries, places to visit, books and other “stuff”.

As well you can find some gossip - the people factor.  Updates on what people are getting up to, their accomplishments and such - all in the name of fun of course.

Our News Flash will be updated when we hear of things that we think will interest you, so keep checking it out.

We asked our advertisers to let you know when they have a special offer and will pass along any “deals” that we hear about in the Special Deals section.

Finally, we wanted to introduce ourselves. About Us is just that.  It also includes details of how to get in touch with our editor, publisher and advertising.

The drop down menu above takes you to breaking news, special deals, people in the spotlight, reader favourites including Rave Ride submissions, reviews, information about the people behind Motorcycle Prince Edward Island, how to get in touch, and even how to advertise with us.

 BIGGER AND BETTER AT RED ROCK H-D

 If you haven’t been to Red Rock Harley-Davidson since last year, you’re in for a BIG surprise!  There have been HUGE and exciting changes in the dealership.

 Since moving from their original location in Winsloe, they have undergone an intensive renovation and upgrade, all towards spotlighting the trademark and serving you, the customer, better.

“Not only is the location much easier to find, we’ve now got four times the square footage of display space,” says Shane Bolger, Finance Associate with Red Rock.

 “There’s more parking, a bigger parts department, more clothing, and a full-time Motorclothes consultant.”  (Amanda Vickerson)

 The main level houses the parts department, Motorclothes section and offices, (6000 sq ft.) while the Mezzanine area on the upper level has approximately 2000 square feet for display. (Compare that to the old shop, which had only 2600 sq ft, in total!)

 “It’s great, because now we can display all the used bikes inside, as well as the up to 25 new motorcycles on the floor in the winter,” says Bolger. “We have so much more room here.”  (The new 2008 models were introduced in late July; however, all that were left on the floor on the day of this interview were a few of the new 2007 models which had not yet been purchased.)

 Rounding out the renovation — the icing on the cake, you could say – is a rad new relaxation area, consisting of comfy leather couches surrounding a wide screen TV, as well as a complimentary coffee station.

 So ... if you haven’t been to Red Rock lately, scoot on over. You’re sure to find something to please when you walk through the doors of their new home!
