had an epiphany! He thought “Why don’t any motorbike companies cater specifically to young ladies who love dirt bikes?!” He came to Katey and Emily and shared this great epiphany. They agreed that the world needed a dirt bike seller that had a target market that comprised of young women.

A few years pass and they save their pennies so they can open their company. Finally they open shop in Denver at the 16th Street Mall on August 24, 2009. Delightful Dirt Bikes was born.
