Kerlin Defies Depth With Harley At Tech Reservoir
B Kerlin of Kerlin Brothers, prominent concrete contractors, rode his 1916 Harley-Davidson three speed to the bottom of a deep reservoir at the Georgia School of Technology to estimate a large concrete job. He climbed out in minutes, claiming the bike’s strength could go into a well and back out. A second Durham incident saw a rider with an 800 pound wagon and twelve passengers hauled through city streets on a Harley, two miles in under fifteen minutes at low to moderate speeds.
