I've been asked to do some research using my "MotorCycle" magazine collection from the 1912 to 1914 period and thought the American content I'm coming across deserved to be shared.
I find it a bit ironic that as a Harley guy I'm putting so much Indian stuff up but them's the breaks.
I'll post the text first and add the photos in the next post because whenever I include both in one post the text gets all mixed up

Too Cool Badger !!! Mike Wilson was trained at Madison HD & was an HD sponsored dealer to get a new dealership in Eastern Iowa

[duffeycycles]

Yes & Ray was pissed when HD set his mechanic up with a dealership.
Ray never talked to Mike again even tho Mike never sold a bike to anybody anywhere near Mad City

[duffeycycles]

I think Mike did say they eventually talked.Mike & Tursky trike remet at Davenport
