25th Anniversary of HOG

The St. Charles Missouri HOG Chapter of HOG was very well represented in Milwaukee.


The turnout of HOG members for the 25th Celebration was amazing, multiple parking lots were filled with motorcycles and the early arrivals had formed a line waiting to get in that circle the entire parking lot two times. It appeared that perhaps HOG organizers were a bit overwhelmed with the turnout. One thing readily apparent to this observer was that in spite of the fact that the magnitude of the crowd surpassed the capability of the venue, HOG people were amazing well mannered and respectful to each other continuously. They are really the very best people.



The crowds were huge, the entrance gates were working at full capacity all day long. Roads and entrance ramps leading into Miller Park constantly had lines of bike lining up to get in.

The bike show featured some very incredible looking bikes and attracted lots of attention.

In honor of the 105th Anniversary of Harley Davidson, this creative individual was able to mount 105 American flags on his bike.


The lineup of entertainment was remarkable, top performers were working the sound stage all day long and into the night. Certainly something for everyone.

Our ole buddy Bubba Blackwell was on hand as well as the Seattle Cossack, Indianapolis Police Drill team, Marion County Motorcycle team, and Bruce Rossmeyer's team. All doing their constantly amazing feats.

And if all that wasn't enough, you could take your shot at riding the bucking hog.
