Tazewell County Career & Technical Centre have received four new Harley-Davidson motorcycles yesterday as a result of a donation by the partnership between Cole-Harley Davidson and Harley-Davidson Motor Company.

The bikes received are the Dyna Switchback, a 1200 Nightster Sportster, an Electra Glide Ultra Classic and a Softail Slim. The bikes will be used for a small engine repair program known as “Harley High” which has been around for 30 years.

“It has been amazing to see how much support we have received for instruction from Cole Harley-Davidson and the Harley-Davidson Corporation,” said Rod Gillespie, the center’s principal.

“They have definitely helped to make Harley High the premier motorcycle service shop in the state. And the best thing about it is that our students are the primary beneficiaries of their willingness to help.”
