Barry | Innovative Auto Works

Barry

Barry celebrates his 3rd year with Innovative this spring, and since his first day on the job has ridden his beloved 2014 Harley Davidson Ultra Classic to work come rain or shine. On the weekends, his wife Diana rides alongside him on her own 2013 Harley Davidson Road Glide Ultra. It's not a surprise that Barry's number one Bucket List goal is to ride the whole US and Canada while cruising on his Harley. Barry is a Master ASE technician, loves mint chocolate chip ice cream, and if you're ever up against him in a state fair eating contest – you'll lose. He's a bottomless pit! That man can put away some food.
