Hey Roadking - I and my wife are members of HOG international but do not affiliate with any chapters because of the distance we live to major cities that have chapters (we live way out in the boonies). We did join the local chapter in Clarksville, Tennessee, but all their rides did not coincide with our work schedules so we did not renew membership. Right now we are riding with Christian Motorcyclists Association Chapter "Fishers of Men" out of New Johnsonville, Tennessee, and a group called Clydeton Road Riders, an informal group of about 30 surrounding neighbors who get together every Sunday after church for a ride. That group is very active in sponsoring rides for worthy causes such as the American Cancer Society, The Hope Center (a house for alcohol and drug addicts - a spiritual approach), and other area charities.
