 MTN VALLEY CHAPTER #1652
The Mtn Valley H.O.G. (Harley Owner’s Group) Chapter was started in February 1988 as Prestonsburg H.O.G. with 16 members. The name was changed in 2000 to Mtn Valley Chapter and now has grown to 150 members.
The Mtn Valley Chapter is sponsored by Harley-Davidson of Pikeville and Prestonsburg Harley-Davidson. Harley-Davidson does not recognize a H.O.G. chapter without a sponsoring dealer and we have a wonderful sponsor in Wes Blackburn.
The Mtn Valley Chapter does a great deal of charity work in the community. In the last 15 years, we have contributed over $100,000.00 to the Muscular Dystrophy Association and over $25,000.00 to the Shriner’s Children’s Hospital in Lexington.
In addition to these charities, the chapter does a toy run each year at Christmas to benefit underprivileged children in the local homeless shelter and a basket run at Easter. We have bike shows and poker runs throughout the year with all proceeds going to charity. We have also worked with United Way, the Migrant Education Program, Cancer Society and various other charities.
Not only do we work hard, but we also have a great deal of fun. Most Harley-Davidson riders' motto is: "Live to Ride and Ride to Live"; however, the Mtn Valley Chapter’s motto is: "RIDE TO HAVE FUN."
We encourage responsible and safe riding. We also encourage everyone to take one of the Safety Rider Courses offered through several of the local colleges. Whether you have ridden for years or are new to the sport, these safety courses can benefit everyone.
So, if you love to ride, love to have fun, have a big heart, love to make new friends and you are a National Harley Owners Group member, the Mtn Valley Chapter would love to have you as part of our organization. Just give us a call at (606) 433-0911.
"RIDE SAFE AND HAVE FUN!"
