Welcome Letter from our Director

Riding a Harley-Davidson is a solitary experience. With the steady rumble of a V-twin and the beauty of America's landscape blurring past you become acutely aware of your own state of being and you want to share that awareness with others who will understand. That is why H.O.G. was created.

The Bond is Metal
The destination could be anywhere: a Blackstone Valley members meeting, a weekly chapter ride or a H.O.G. event - destination known or unknown. The sound of our arrival is heard from a mile away followed by the lines of headlights on the road. The same thing happens whether it's one or a hundred of us. The feeling of being out there on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle links us like no other experience can. It has also made H.O.G. like no other organization in the world. If you're about to arrive at your first Blackstone Valley Chapter meeting, you'll notice it right off. The atmosphere is more like family than an organized meeting. The fun all around you is as genuine as Milwaukee steel. There is nothing sealed in or climate controlled about our chapter. There are miles waiting to be discovered. You're welcome to ride along.

No Meeting Hall In The World Can Hold Us
Wherever and whenever Blackstone Valley members gather, whether it is our own chapter ride or another H.O.G. event, the possibilities are open wide. Looking for an excuse to ride? Our wheels never stop turning. Maybe it's one of our many unique rides. Maybe it's heading out for dinner in the next town, or events for other chapters. Along the way, the Blackstone Valley Chapter helps out some very worthy causes. For instance, we sponsor a 'Christmas is For Kids' Toy Run in the fall and Biker Ball during the non-riding season.

Sit Down And Be Counted
There's a good reason why so many of us believe living life from the seat of a Harley is the only way to go. After all, riding is something we never get enough of, and that's where becoming a Blackstone Valley member comes in. Besides the H.O.G. pin and patch, your membership card is your key to receive many additional benefits that no one other than H.O.G. members receive. No matter how far the road goes, there's one thing that matters to the members of Blackstone Valley: "To Ride and Have Fun."

About Blackstone Valley H.O.G. Chapter

The Harley Owners Group is the world's largest factory-sponsored motorcycle organization, with more than 900,000 members around the globe.

Come join us for a ride and see for yourself what Blackstone Valley is all about. Visit our web site for up to date events or call our informational "Swine Line". Most of our rides leave from Man Mar Plaza, in Plainville, Rte 152 on the Plainville/North Attleboro line. We ride every weekend for as long as the weather holds.

Our chapter meetings are held the second Thursday of the month at 7:30PM at the North Attleboro Elk's Lodge, Bulfinch Street, North Attleboro. All Harley owners are welcome to join. To become a Blackstone member, you will need to present your National H.O.G. card (you received a free one-year membership with the purchase of your new Harley) and complete a Chapter application. The fee is $20.00 annually. It's as easy as that!!

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact any officer in the club. Our phone numbers are listed on our web site and we're always happy to hear from fellow enthusiasts. You can also leave a message on the "Swine Line" and we'll get back to you.

Hope to be riding with you soon.
