CV HOG Event Safety

Motorcycling is primarily a solo activity, but for many, riding as a group -- whether with friends on a Sunday morning ride or with an organized motorcycle rally -- is the epitome of the motorcycling experience.

The Cumberland Valley H.O.G. Chapter utilizes staggered formation and the use of hand signals on all Chapter sanctioned rides. For more information as well as some tips to help ensure a fun and safe group ride, please check out the videos below as well as the Quick Tips guides.
