The starting mileage for the Road Warrior program will be officially recorded on the second Sunday of November of each year which is also the Polar Bear kickoff event. Your VIN number and odometer will read and recorded. If you miss this event or you have more than one motorcycle to register, contact the Assistant Director by email, AsstDirector@hog.classicharley.com to have your odometer read. Harry Knerr in the parts department at Classic Harley-Davidson can also take your mileage, or any other HOG officer (Log in and refer to the “Officers” tab for contact information). Ending Road Warrior mileage will need to be turned in by the second Sunday of November in the next year at the kickoff event for the Polar Bear Program. An alternate method of electronic verification of your bike’s mileage has been approved if extraneous circumstances makes it impractical for you to obtain a personal mileage verification. You may send a photo of your VIN and odometer to the Assistant Director using the email above.
Chapter Members, with a quest for mileage on their Harley-Davidson motorcycle, that accumulate a minimum of 10,000 miles in a one-year period as either a rider or passenger, are recognized as a Road Warrior. Each year our Road Warrior’s names, accumulated mileage, and the number of past years achieving a Road Warrior reward, is recorded into the chapter’s Road Warrior history book. In addition, an award patch or yearly rocker patch is presented to wear in recognition of your achievement. A picture of the Road Warrior patch is provided on the chapter web site on the “Programs” tab. Members may register multiple Harley-Davidson motorcycles or rentals in one year and use each of them to accumulate miles toward their award.
Riders, passengers, Harley motorcycles, and odometer miles all must be registered using a signed Road Warrior Registration Form to participate and to begin earning miles in the program. The Road Warrior starting/ending registration date is also the start of the chapter’s Polar Bear program. If you miss the November program kickoff event you may register anytime during the program year. Please remember your window of time to accumulate miles is reduced because the program begins and ends every November.
The Road Warrior program is managed by the Assistant Director along with the help of all the chapter officers and the Parts Department staff at our sponsoring dealership Classic Harley-Davidson. It is the responsibility of every participant of the Road Warrior program to review and follow the registration information and program rules.
