Jeremy Coon, 40

Occupation: Owner at Lucky U Cycles, Wildwood

What I do: I buy and sell motorcycles. 

How I got my start: In 1999, my next-door neighbor’s parents owned the local Harley shop and offered me a summer job. I’ve been in the industry ever since. 

Why motorcycles are my passion: This job never gets old, and seeing customers get so excited about buying and riding their motorcycles is great. I still have the same passion for motorcycles as I did when I got in the business. Simply put, I sell fun!

Notable achievement: Becoming the top selling pre-owned dealer in the state of Florida.

Words of wisdom: Success doesn’t come overnight; you have to always stay on the gas. 

Outside the showroom: I love to fish and ride my motorcycle. 

Life after 40: I look forward to breaking ground on our new 15,000-square-foot dealership in Wildwood.
