‘Passion for the open road’ leads Werner to Sturgis

Dowtown Sturgis

Werner Enterprises is the official trucking company of the 75th Annual 2015 Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.

“As a transportation leader for nearly 60 years, we respect those who share our passion for the open road – whether traveling on two wheels or 18,” said Werner President and Chief Operating Officer Derek Leathers. “We are extremely excited and honored to take part in this long-standing iconic event,” said  “As a transportation leader for nearly 60 years, we respect those who share our passion for the open road – whether traveling on two wheels or 18.”

As the official trucking company of the event, Werner will have equipment staffed and showcased on Main Street in Sturgis during the Aug. 3-9 rally. Staff will provide an opportunity for event goers to gather information regarding trucking careers and how the industry has evolved.

Leathers said the partnership is a great fit for Werner, a company whose drivers value the same sense of freedom that drives motorcycle enthusiasts to hit the open road.
