My name is Bob Wilkinson and this is my wife Ann. I purchased my first motorcycle when I was 16 years old, it wasn’t a Harley (unfortunately) and I quit riding for awhile after that one.

In September 2006 Ann, without my knowledge, purchased our first Harley a 2007 Electra Glide Classic and gave it to me as an early birthday present incase I had plans on getting a Yamaha.

The second Harley, this 2010 Electra Glide Ultra, was purchased in January 2011.

We have been members of the Modesto HOG since May 2010 and have enjoyed the group rides and the association with other HOG members.

I’m Fred Garber , a longtime member and our club's historian.
I have recently purchased this 2010 HD triglide, otherwise known as an Ultra Classic Trike.
I have almost 2200 miles on it and it is totally stock except for the battery tender harness.
I love it and ride every chance i get.

The obvious differences between it and a 2 wheel motorcycle are:  

  • you NEVER put your feet down unless you are getting on or off  
  • no leaning in turns and no countersteering.

The hardest thing i had getting used to with it is going over bumps. If the front wheel doesn't catch the bump/pot hole, one of the rear wheels will.

I’m Mike McLaughlin , a new member and rider last year.

I’ve been to a couple membership meetings, but I haven’t gone on any rides yet. Hope to go on a few this summer.

I live in Patterson with my wife and 7 year old daughter, and I also have a 22 year old daughter who is attending Nursing school in North Carolina.

I’m a firefighter in Patterson and I enjoy my off days riding my new bike, a 2009 FXDL.

I had a friend make a set of custom pipes, added a power commander, and had the bike dyno tuned. It made a huge difference in the sound and performance.

Barb and I (Mike Betz) made this rather large purchase in September of 2008.

A 2009 CVO Ultra (Screamin Eagle) with 110 cubic inch engine. Pretty much stock except for:

  1. Rush mufflers with Screamin Eagle air filter and custom fuel mapping
  2. A 2010 Limited seat for Barb
  3. Hogtunes speakers
  4. Garmin GPS
  5. And my blue bling lights purchased and installed by our son Josh.

On Sunday, June 6th 2010, the odometer went over 28,000 miles. Enjoying the ride and hope it's in the family for a long time.

Henry ( HOGRYD ) Fiez

I currently ride a 2005 Roadking. I have been riding for 55 years and enjoy nothing more.

Hi, I am Laury Chimerofsky.

My ride is a 2007 Ultra Classic.

This bike and I have been from Canada, to just north of the Mexican Border and east to Montana, and Wyoming.

I hope to have many more short and long rides over the next years.

Keep those tires rolling, and your chrome shining

My name is Ellie Fagundes and I have been riding about 5 yrs.

This is my 07 Softail Deluxe,

I enjoy riding very much. The hills are so beautiful right now..everything is green, the temp is fantastic!!

See you on the road!!

John & Louise Krediet's new 2010 Limited.

This was our 1st ride, the Sweetheart ride. We plan many miles together making many new memories along the way.

Jerry '5150' Fiez 2008 Street Glide

I've been riding for 25 years.

My first bike was Honda trail 70 when I was only 5. I grew up on street bikes and dirtbikes.

I currently own a Honda nighthawk, susuki DR 650, but i currently ride and proudly own a Harley streetglide 2008!

My hobbies are long walks on the beach with my boo and puppy dogs, ride hard or stay home 5150!

'Papa Chuck' Givens 2008 Ultra Classic.

This is my 2008 FLHTCU-ABS Anniversary Package, the first Harley that I have ever owned.

I am so happy to have it and only wish I could have come up with a way to get one years ago.

The bike is stock and it had 8 miles on it in Oct '08 when I picked it up. Now it has 23,500 miles, you just don’t want to get off of it.

'Mud Dog' Jerry Bullock's 2008 Ultra Classic with ABS.

Rush pipes, Stage1 upgrade, Stealth Chrome, Arlen Ness 'Big Sucker' Air Filter

It currently has 6,000 miles and growing.

I have had 4 bikes (on and off-road) prior to acquiring my Harley. By far the best purchase.
