Safe Rider Skills Program
At the Harley Owners Group®, safe riding is a top priority. So, to encourage all our
members to ride as skillfully and safely as possible, we offer tuition reimbursement up
to US $50 (in the form of a coupon) for the successful completion of an accredited
Motorcycle Safety Foundation rider training course, or Harley-Davidson Rider's Edge®
course. Successful students will also receive a pin and patch featuring the "Safe Rider
Skills" logo.
As a further incentive, H.O.G. chapters with at least 12 members completing a course in
a single calendar year will receive special recognition: a Safe Rider Skills plaque.
