About us
Sydney HOG Chapter 2102
Sydney H.O.G. Chapter is sponsored by Harley-Heaven Sydney. Our Chapter number is 2102.
We have a meeting on the first Tuesday of every month at Rocks Brewing Co, Building 2/160 Bourke Rd Alexandria (it's in a corporate park). Dinner from 6pm, meeting starts at 7pm. All welcome, it's a social catch up for members with the minimum necessary formality.
We have a Chapter newsletter called Harbour HOG which is published monthly. It can be downloaded here.
Most of our rides depart from McDonalds St Peters but there may be "rolling pickups" along the route. Longer rides may depart from the outskirts of Sydney. Check the website for details.
We have around 250 members, about 50 rides a year and an active Facebook Group for our members.
What is a Chapter?
Each Harley-Davidson dealership sponsors a Chapter of the Harley Owners Group. Our Chapter is called the Sydney H.O.G. Chapter and we are proudly sponsored by Harley-Heaven Sydney. You must be a member of the Harley Owners Group (currently $85 per year) and also a member of each individual Chapter you would like to join (most are around $40 per year). You can join as many as you like.
What is H.O.G.?
H.O.G. stands for Harley Owners Group.
It's the biggest, motor company sponsored, owners' group in the world, with more than a million members and 1,400 Chapters.
What's Sydney Chapter all about?
Sydney Chapter was established in November 2006. We are made up of a passionate group of volunteers that form a Committee, a team of dedicated and trained Road Captains that plan and run the rides and about 250 members who love to ride and have fun!
We organise rides:
- on most weekends (sometimes Saturdays, sometimes Sundays) with mix of half day and full day rides
- 4 times a year on a Wednesday (just because)
- whenever there is a full moon on a weekend with no ride the next day
- for charity (Youth Off The Streets, Cure Brain Cancer, YoungCare)
- rallies (a huge coming together of Chapters from around Australia)
- and social Chapter meetings on the first Tuesday of each month (don't worry, there's no formality here).
Even if you have lived in Sydney all your life you will see places you didn't know existed while riding with Sydney H.O.G. You'll also see most parts of NSW and Australia.
What type of people join a Chapter?
We come from all walks of life and we're not "bikies" although, to the untrained eye, we turn heads when riding in a large group. Under the motorcycle gear we could be male or female, employees or employers, students or retirees, mums or dads, battlers or doing just fine. However, we are all one when we ride.
We are a friendly Chapter, non-political and welcoming of all. You just need a Harley, a H.O.G. membership from Harley-Davidson (free for the first year if you've just purchased a new Harley) and a Chapter membership from us (only $40).
Simply join here, and our Membership Officer will send you all the details including when our next New Members' ride is.
The H.O.G. motto is:
Ride and have fun!
