Larry, Moe and Curly have nothing on Cincinnati suburbanites Woody, Doug, Bobby and Dudley. Rather than facing a crumbling marriage to a swimsuit model, Woody (John Travolta) wants to escape via a mid-life crisis roadtrip on his Harley and recruits his rich urban biker (r.u.b.) friends for the cross-country adventure. Doug (Tim Allen) is the dentist approaching a nervous breakdown. Bobby (Martin Lawrence) is the hen-pecked husband who'd do anything for time away from his wife and plumbing career. The final member of the motorcycle club is Dudley (William H. Macy) who is more dork than dude and it shows in his riding skills.

NAPLES, Fla. (May 3, 2007) - Harley-Davidson’s Rider’s Edge New Rider Course trained its 100,000th student, Michael Lambert of Estero, Fla., on March 22-26, at Harley-Davidson of Naples.

Lambert, age 39, decided to learn to ride a motorcycle when he fell in love with the dark and sinister 2007 Harley-Davidson Sportster XL1200N Nightster. Earlier this year, while waiting for the restaurant next to the dealership to open, Lambert took a stroll through the sales area to check out the new motorcycles. When he saw the new Nightster, he had to have it. Lambert planned to buy the Nightster after he completed the New Rider Course, but unfortunately the last one was sold only 2 hours before the end of his class. Lambert eagerly waited for the next one to be delivered to the dealership, and he was finally able to take home his new Nightster on April 21.
