Cycle Barn to Stage “Melanie’s Ride”

Melanie with Veronica Cook and Cycle Barn riders

Melanie Thielman is a young Lynnwood woman seriously injured two years ago in an accident when she was 17. She requires permanent nursing care for her injuries. Melanie has always loved motorcycles, particularly Harley-Davidson motorcycles. Local Harley-Davidson dealer Lynnwood Cycle Barn has put together a selection of Harley shirts for Melanie to wear, and on Friday, November 13, dealership staff and members of the Cycle Barn’s Great Northwest Harley-Davidson Owners’ Group will deliver them to Melanie.

The motorcyclists will gather at the dealership in Lynnwood at 12:15 pm, and anyone who rides a Harley-Davidson is welcome to join them for the event. A short ride to Melanie’s school, Shorewood High School in Shoreline, will follow and the shirts will be presented to Melanie.

According to Cycle Barn’s Dave Preston, who will lead the ride, “This event will be so meaningful. Melanie’s situation touches everyone’s heart, and nobody has bigger hearts than Harley-Davidson riders. This is going to be a surprise for Melanie, so don’t anyone tell!”
