HOG
ABC's of Touring Contest
Here's how it works: After
you enroll in the program, keep a camera and a copy of a current
issue of Hog Tales® or Enthusiast® magazine with your bike. Then,
you can earn points by submitting photographs of you and your
Harley® in front of official signs while holding a current copy
of one of the magazines. See the 2006 National HOG 2006
results, Greg placed |
National Winners
Every year, HOG posts online and publishes in HOG Tails magazine the winners from the previous year. The winner's total points seem an insurmountable feat, but I'm sure they had a blast compiling each point. Here is a list of the 2006 National HOG ABCs of Touring winners.

Greg's Ride log
A couple of things I have learned so far about doing the ABCs is that
while it is designed to get people to explore, most people just like
to ride and not stop at every possible location to get a picture to
check off the ABCs. So I usually end up going by myself. I’ve
also learned to bring along several wooden clothes pins to keep the
pages from blowing open in slight breezes. I also have a zip lock bag
to put “Hog Tails” in just incase it is raining.
