“I am honored to represent the Sturgis Rally,
an event that holds over 30 years of unforgettable
memories for me, as well as all the women who
have helped pave the motorcycling path for so
many others.” says Combs.
As a brand representative and product
expert, Ms. Combs is currently developing a
woman’s line of welding gear to help meet the
needs of women who have chosen to follow their
dreams in a non-traditional industry. She is also
starting her own metal fabrication shop where
“bad ass hot rods, motorcycles, custom trucks,
race vehicles, and anything metal will originate
with a feminine touch; where chicks can fi nally
have a place to get dirty, be creative, use their
skills, explore talents, go fast, and have fun in a
comfortable working environment”.
