Our HOG® Chapter is a place where lasting friendships are built. During the riding season, we organize Wednesday night rides, giving members the chance to connect while enjoying the open road. In the off-season, we keep the camaraderie alive with weekly Wednesday Pub nights, along with monthly meetings, memorial rides, and special events that strengthen our community.
One of our proudest traditions is participating in the Annual Port Alberni Toy Run. This event holds special meaning for our chapter, as we come together to support a great cause and make a positive impact in our community.

On Jan 1, 1983 HOG® was born
Rapid growth continued into the 1990s, and in 1991 H.O.G.® officially went international, with the first official European HOG® Rally in Cheltenham, England. Worldwide membership numbered 151,600, with 685 local Chapters.
As the ’90s continued, HOG® hysteria spread into Asia, including new chapters in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. By 1999, worldwide membership had hit the half-million mark, and the number of local chapters totaled 1,157. Today, more than a million members make HOG® the largest factory-sponsored motorcycle organization in the world, and it shows absolutely no signs of slowing down.
On Sept 20, 1989 HOG® Chapter #9043 was established. O'Hara's HD in Delta was the original Sponsoring dealership. A change of ownership brought the Chapter to a new location in Langley and the name was changed to Southside Chapter. A few years later Barnes bought the dealership and eventually moved it to it's current location. The Chapter voted to change the name to Langley HOG® in 2003/2004. Langley HOG® Chapter is presently supported by Barnes Harley-Davidson®. Presently, HOG® has over 1 million members’ worldwide!

Generally, the routes are chosen by the Road Captains under the direction of the Lead Road Captain. Sometimes, these are based upon previous rides from prior years, or something newly discovered. Rides have also started simply by a few members talking about someplace they would like to go. Others have been suggested by the membership.
