Welcome to the Wild Prairie HOG® Chapter web site!

The Wild Prairie Chapter of the Harley Owner's Group® was formed in 2008. The Wild Prairie Chapter of the Harley Owners Group® is a non-religious, non-political, non-profit, volunteer, organization which is part of the largest manufacturer sponsored owner's association in the world!

If you are looking for a fun group to ride with, you have found the right place! Our motto is to “Ride and Have Fun,” and to that end, we have dozens of rides, events, and activities throughout the year. We start our riding season off with a bike blessing and then follow that with many dinner rides, day rides, weekend rides, chapter events, and various other activities. We have short rides, long rides, Saturday rides, Sunday rides, breakfast rides, lunch rides, dinner rides, in-state rides, out-of-state rides, vacation rides, and over-the-weekend mini vacation rides across some of the most scenic roads in America. Check out our events calendar and come join us. We average a ride, event, or activity every 2.3 days… lots to choose from.

In addition, we support Cornerstone, a shelter for battered women, by cooking a meal for them and providing toiletries for the women. We also support Toys for Tots each Christmas by purchasing bicycles for the kids. In the last two years, Wild Prairie Harley-Davidson customers and HOG® members have donated 424 twenty-six inch bicycles to Toys for Tots. Our fund-raisers for this charity go year round. We also support other charitable organizations.

When we are not on our bikes, we still get together to have fun as a Chapter. We’ll get together for bowling, Saturday morning breakfast, Monday dinners, holiday theme party, chapter challenges, Million Mile Monday rides, and much, much more.

We’re About Safety

Riding and having fun is based on a foundation of safety. Safety at Wild Prairie HOG is reflected in the roads we select, the time of our rides and the timing of rest stops, the required training of our Road Captains (see Road Captain’s page), our pre-ride preparations, the first aid supplies the Road Captains carry, practice sessions we conduct, our no-alcohol policy during Chapter rides, and an emphasis on a safety topic within each Chapter meeting. All of this is evident in the conduct of our Chapter members and their riding behavior.

No Alcohol Policy

Our Chapter has adopted a NO ALCOHOL policy during our rides. Consumption of alcohol immediately before or during a riding event will not be tolerated and will result in the exclusion of the offending party from the even or the cancellation of the ride. We want to ride and have fun – safely.

Chapter Officers (see Chapter Officers page)

Our Officers are volunteers. They are elected by the membership and serve a term of two years. Our Officers are extremely active in the Chapter are always on the look-out for what we can/should do to ‘Ride and Have More Fun’.

We have a group named Spokesman. The group is responsible for welcoming new members and getting them to engage in rides and activities.

Preamble

The opportunity to start an independent chapter affiliated with the Harley Owners Group® is offered to bring members together for the common interest of promoting motorcycling activities. The goal of each chapter is to generate an increased level of enthusiasm for riding Harley-Davidson® motorcycles.
