Mileage updates are performed in person at any participating dealership by the Mileage Validator. 
Our Challenge Miles are recorded from the National H.O.G. based on the dealership mileage readings. Ride into a participating dealership, check in with a Mileage Validator and get a starting/current mileage reading from your motorcycle.

If you have NOT had a mileage reading performed by a Mileage Validator at a participating dealership yet, please do so ASAP so that your miles count.

DHD HOG MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Lorraine H. – DECEMBER IN MAUI

Eighty degrees, barely a cloud in the sky, and a rented motorcycle between my legs. While everyone back home was digging out winter coats, I was leaning into curves on one of the most legendary roads on the planet, The Road to Hana. I rode it solo, which honestly made it even better. No one to keep pace with, no one to wait on, just me, the bike, and 64 miles of pure Maui magic. We’re talking 620 curves, 59 one-lane bridges, waterfalls around every other bend, and jungle so green it doesn’t look real. I’ve been riding for four years and have done my share of great routes, but nothing has come close to this one.

The halfway point has this little banana bread stand that sounds too touristy to be worth it, and it absolutely is worth it. I stopped, grabbed a slice, and took in the fact that I was literally in the middle of one of the most beautiful places I’d ever seen. That stop also happened to be where I got my photo for the HOG 50 Rides, One Nation challenge, me and the “Halfway to Hana” sign, grinning like an idiot, completely in my element. Through H.O.G.’s Ride 365 program, you can ride a featured route in each state, submit a photo, and earn a commemorative metal poker chip for every state you complete. Finish all 50 and Harley-Davidson puts your name on a rivet at the H-D Museum in Milwaukee.

If you’re a HOG member and Hawaii is on your radar, stop thinking about it and go. Ride it on a weekday if you can, the crowds are lighter and the road feels like it’s all yours. Give yourself the full day, stop at every waterfall pull-off that catches your eye, and don’t skip the banana bread. The Road to Hana isn’t the kind of ride you check off a list. It’s the kind you call people about when you get back to the hotel. Check out HOG.com/Ride365 and see what rides are waiting for you, because trust me, this challenge is worth chasing.
