The idea of organizing an all-filipino Harley Riders Club came about in the early part of February 1999 when a handful of Pinoy riders bumped into each other at a Harley dealership in Riverside, California. Being filipinos and sociable by nature , one Harley ride led to so many other rides covering different Harley Davidson dealerships around California areas, and motorcycle rallies with the intention of meeting other Pinoy Harley owners and motorcycling enthusiasts. Around July 1999, the compilation of known Pinoy riders grew to around 20 and it became apparent that a formal organization amongst filipino Harley riders had to be formed. With glittering Harley Davidson motorcyles of various models filling the restaurant parking lot, a breakfast meeting was called at Cafe Ilustrado in Diamond Bar, California on October of 1999 to enact the club's constitution and by-laws and, elect the first set of club officers.

Revolving around the idea that we in the United States, being of a distinct family-oriented minority, can also enjoy riding these fine american-made motorcycles, the first USA-based Filipino-American Harley motorcycle organization was officially established. We take pride in calling ourselves the 'PINOY HARLEY RIDERS CLUB'. The popularity of the group is evident by it's membership extending throughout the state of California and a chapter in Nevada. |
