No 30th year HOG member patch?
« on: January 07, 2014, 12:33:36 AM »
I was a little disappointed that the MoCo didn't send out a 30th year member patch when I got my membership renewal packet recently. 
I'd buy one if they had one available. 
Doesn't this seem strange?  I guess the 25 year one is all they want to do.
Maybe they feel that if you've been a member that long, you're about at life expectancy and there are better things to invest in.
(-Got to go now, I'm reviewing a prepaid funeral arrangement plan- then take my meds and head for bed piloting my new Rascal Runabout).

Only a 10 & 25 years patch is available.
 An adherence of 10/25 consecutive years is necessary.
Why not do a patch for 10/20/30/40 ???

They think the insipid almost annual "anniversary" bikes and their associated crap are potential profit mongers centers.  They know handing out a free patch for extra anniversaries to HOG isn't going to make them any money.

Wow...you took the words out of my mouth.

Really, what gives about the release of the "anniversary" models every 5 years?  Heck, I had the 99th anniversary (am surprised they did not push that year) Heritage and have the 106th anniversary CVO RoadGlide.

Patience...heard they're diligently working on a zombie version to match the zombie foot control line up.

Hey, could probably sell some "107th Anniversary" or some-such medallions.  That would be fun.
