Congratulations Barry Richards of Oberlin, Kansas. Barry is now the proud owner of a 2009, Dark Blue, Honda GL1800 Gold Wing. I called Barry at work to give him the good news and, as with our 2007 Win-A-Wing Sweepstakes winner Richard Califano, I was met with a succession of “your kidding me”. Unlike Richard, it didn’t take me long to convince Barry he was really the winner. I’ve been working on my “trust me” voice and apparently I’m making progress.
Barry tells me that he is 47 years old and was born and raised in Oberlin Kansas. He and his wife Patti have four boys, Curtis, Bryan, Johnathon, and Andrew who is the youngest and a senior in high school this year. Barry says that now that the boys are grown he and Patti are looking forward to being on their own again. What better way to do that than on a brand new Honda Goldwing.
Barry bought his first Goldwing, a GL1500, in 2005. He moved on to an 2001 GL1800 in the spring of 2008. Shortly after getting the GL1800 Barry was preparing for a July 4th trip with Patti, buddy Dan Votapka and his wife Lisa, to Estes Park, Colorado. To make Patti more comfortable, on June 28th, Barry placed an order with Chrome World for two helmet headsets and and a set of GL1800 Kuryakyn passenger armrests. Smart man that Barry. He knows that when Momma is happy, everybody is happy. And for Barry that saying could not have been more true because it was that order that gave Barry the winning entry in the Chrome World Win-A-Wing Sweepstakes.
We’ll have more on Barry in a future post after we get Barry’s new Goldwing delivered. Congratulations to our newest Chrome World Win-A-Wing Sweepstakes winner. As for the rest of you… all is not lost. We are working diligently to put together the next sweepstakes. So keep an eye on www.chromeworld.com for another chance to win.
