Lake County HOG -- About Us
|
| Our chapter meets on the second Saturday of the month at 1:00 p.m. at Gator Harley-Davidson on South Highway 441 in Leesburg.
Chapter meetings are usually preceded by a delicious meal prepared by one of our members. Gator HD has provided our chapter with a large meeting room
(and kitchen!) over the store, and offers chapter members a 10-percent discount on purchases and service. The Gator HD owners and employees are
very chapter friendly and supportive.
On weekends we usually have a group ride to one of the many excellent restaurants here in Central Florida. It's a perfect opportunity to come out and see how we ride. To ride with us as a chapter guest, you will need to fill out a Release Form. All minors, whether chapter members or not need to fill out release forms anytime they participate in a chapter ride. To obtain a Minor Release Form, and to get a Minor's Assumption of Risk form (required of all minors 12-18). We use the staggered formation on all of our group rides to help ensure everyone's safety and to make each ride as stress-free and as much fun as possible. Click on Group Riding Policy to find out how we conduct group rides and how the staggered formation works. We sponsor two major fundraisers each year, our "Ride Off The Stuffing" poker run to benefit Haven House on the Sunday after Thanksgiving; and our keynote "April Fools Fun Run" in April, which raises money for the Chapter's charitable donations and activities. Our dealership is a major sponsor of the annual Leesburg Bikefest during the last week in April. Our Chapter assists in running the biker games during Bikefest, and actively supports what has become one of Florida's major biker events. Lake County H.O.G. also rides in support of the keynote charity fundraising events of our fellow Central Florida chapters. Add to that our annual Holiday Party, Shrimp Boil, Progressive Dinner and overnighters, and you can see that Lake County H.O.G. is a fun place to be. And for a little variety, many of us plan each year to travel to one or more of the nearby State H.O.G. rallies, as well as to Destin for the 2011 Florida State H.O.G. Rally. Volunteers from our chapter will also be involved in helping make the 2011 Florida State Rally another great event. And speaking of fun, being a H.O.G. member has many fun-filled benefits, including being able to join a local H.O.G. chapter, such as ours, as well as participate in some neat programs that are absolutely free. Two such programs are the H.O.G. Mileage Program and the ABCs Of Touring. So come on and ride with us and join in the fun activities.
