Rose City H.O.G. (Harley Owners Group) chapter #4105 was formed in 1993 under the sponsorship of Latus Motors Harley-Davidson of Gladstone, Oregon. It's initial membership of 60 members has increased over the years to a current roster of over 300.
Rose City H.O.G.'s regularly scheduled monthly activities include at least two Chapter Rides and a Fun Monthly Meeting, which is held on the 4th Tuesday of the month (not necessarily the last Tuesday!). Our Chapter Editor also publishes a very interesting and informative monthly newsletter, titled the Rose City H.O.G. Town Crier. We also have a Web Master that maintains our Chapter's awesome website.
As our Safety Officers and Road Captains want us all to ride as safely as possible, they conduct Group Riding Classes for our members, and encourage ongoing motorcycle skills training. Both of these activities have become extremely popular and are well attended.
Although our group is focused on riding our Harleys and having fun, our Chapter organizes events geared to include our non-riding family members as well. A few of our past activities include visits to the go-cart track, "Cosmic Bowling", and the very popular Harley homecoming parades at our local high schools. Additional activities are always being planned, you just never know what other kind of fun is in store for you. Information and a schedule of upcoming Chapter events can be found elsewhere on our website, and by signing up to receive our mass emails.
Our Chapter put on 27 rides this last year and with our great Road Captains, we are always getting to enjoy new places to ride and have fun. We really enjoy getting out of town and out on the back roads of Oregon.
We also sponsor several community fund raising events such as our annual Rose City HOG Ladies of Harley Holiday Gift Wrap, The Yell and Tell Foundation, Mt Hood Kiwanis Camp, and a new one chosen by the members.
We also put on our major fund raiser of the year, The Rose City HOG Poker Run. We welcome all makes of bikes to ride and have fun with us!
We kick off our year with our Holiday Banquet, a fun and entertaining event to start off a year of enjoying our bikes, rides, and the company of our fellow Rose City HOG members.
Our Chapter is easy to join! You must be a National HOG Member. $45 for full membership and $25 for Associate. The cost to Join Rose City HOG is "free" thanks to our sponsor, Latus Motors Harley-Davidson..... Nice!
