Name Ann Marie Hofmeister
Title Owner
Ann grew up in the motorcycle business with her dad, so it's only natural that she's here now, doing what she does best - running a Harley-Davidson® dealership! Ann graduated from the U of M Carlson School of Management in 2000 with & bachelor's degree in Business. She now applies her business degree and great management skills to oversee every area of Faribault Harley-Davidson®.
She's been riding since 1999 and if you can't find her here, on any given sunny day, she's out riding one of her 2019 CVO® Road Glide®. She has no real specific place she loves to ride because she thinks that every bit of America is worth exploring. She enjoys riding with her friends, as well as with the many group rides she goes on every year.

Kelly
A&L Associate
Name Kelly
Title A&L Associate
Fashion has followed Kelly from being a '08 Cosmetology graduate to managing our extensive MotorClothes® department at Faribault Harley-Davidson®. Kelly truly loves the open road - she says that as long as you're riding, it doesn't matter the location (although the Bad Lands of South Dakota are nice). She's been taking in the view from the passenger seat for a while now, but she did get her endorsement through our Riding Academy®course- maybe one day soon she'll drive her own.
In her free time, she likes to go shopping, spend time with family and friends, cook, watch movies and be outdoors in the sunshine.

Skypp has been riding since 196X! Had a CRA Race license in the 80s but didn't learn to ride until I became an instructor. Skypp teaches because he enjoys the sport and seeing the joy our students express during and after class. When teaching loses its charm and excitement he'll quit!

Mike
Service Manager
Name Mike
Title Service Manager
Mike Graduated in '88 for auto body at ATI in Austin, Minnesota and has nearly three decades of mechanics under his belt. Being in his 39th year of riding motorcycles, you can imagine he's been all over, but the place he'd pick over anywhere else to ride, is the Black Hills in South Dakota on his 2019 Road Glide in late summer.
In his free time he likes spending time with his wife, Belinda, and their cat and three dogs. He also enjoys music, his sick new Bronco, and target practicing at the gun range.
A Favorite Quote: "Work smarter, not harder."

Chris
Master Service Technician
Name Chris
Title Master Service Technician
Chris graduated with top honors in 2011 with a Master of Technology in 2001. He has been a motorcycle mechanic for over a decade and has been riding since his legs were just long enough to reach the foot pedals.
He truly likes his freedom... when asked his favorite place to ride, he replied, "away from work." So if you see him outside of work on his '06 HD® Bagger - aka "The Silver Bullet," he's probably having the time of his life because that's what he likes to do best.
When he's not working or riding, he likes to hunt, fish, camp and party on the pontoon.
A Favorite Quote: "Loose is fast, and on the edge of out of control." -Harry Hogge, Days of Thunder
John
Master Service Technician
Name John
Title Master Service Technician
John is a 2012 graduate of MMI Phoenix and has loved the work he does ever since! He's been riding for a little longer than he has been wrenching, but is already hooked. His favorite places to ride are Northern Arizona and Southern Colorado where the desert meets the mountains. Outside of his job, he loves time with his wife and four children, go-kart racing, and working on his 'old truck.'
