About carllmyerscycar

I am Sales Manager of Cy-Car Inc. Makers of the TigerCat 3V2 cycle car. The car is in development and construction in our shopes in Medford OR. To be completed in Nov.~Dec. of this year. Intended for general production in 2012~13. The TigerCat is a great combination of Motorcycle and Hot Rod looks. Powered by a Harley Davidson "V" twin engine. The TigerCat is intended to be a touring and cruiser style car with capisity to hold two passangers sitting side by side, in style and comfort. I was in theMotorcycle business for over 25 years and have owned two Honda dealerships, worked in the Motorcycle accessory aftermarket, was Director of Parts for Bombardier (BRP), and have worked as a consultant for Suzuki, and Honda. I now own a Mail Order Internet business (panaviseonline.com) and work full time on things I love, like cars and cycles. I am the Grand Father of girls and am waiting for more when the time comes. My wife Glynda is a homemaker, My son Chad is in the computer business as a systems developer and my Daughter Carla is a writer of short stories and childrens books. We live in the beautiful Rogue Valley of Southern Oregon (Medford), and love every day. Most of my BLOG stories will be about the TigerCat project, BUT I will drop a few one liners here and there and stories about my thoughts and wishes. I hope you enjoy. What a great country!!!
