It’s where people like you come to share their common interest in Harley-Davidson motorcycles and the unique lifestyle that makes H.O.G.® so special.

We have a variety of terrific group rides and events for everyone to enjoy. Our meetings are a great way to get to know other members and learn more about our chapter. Come see what the F.X.

  • FX Thunder Ride 365 Mileage Submission Program
    Mileage verification for 2026 Ride 365 will No Longer be sent through the Whats-app. Whats-app is to busy and to hard for our Membership Officer Ken to keep up with and he also works at FXCH-D and nobody was really using his email as we tried to switch too. So with the Let's Ride program their were QR codes that still work for mileage verification. Also the Let's Ride program will be back for the 2026 riding season starting sometime in March. This is much easier and HEY it gets you out on your bike. You can visit any dealer to verify your miles by scanning the QR code with-in the dealers. Your miles are then immediately updated in your 365 profile. Any question just reach out to us. For club members: On another note our Chapter does participates in the Ride 365 Mileage Challenge. We compete against other Chapters in our region and nationally for National Total miles, Regional Total miles & National Average miles as you can see below on this page. If you would like to participate we ask that you get at least 2 mileage readings per year. One at the beginning of the year and one at the end of the year or end of your riding season. Other than the first and last odometer reading you could update your mileage as many times as you want by using the QR code in the Let's Ride Program as explained above. For members with H-D Visa Cards this will help so you can get your mileage points for riding each billing cycle. Thats right you can earn money for riding your Harley-Davidson Motorcycle.
