The Harley Owners Group Brunei (HOGB) Chapter set off for the first ever SEA HOG Rally yesterday. Brunei's contingent consists of 18 members from the HOGB, who will be part of around 300 participants from around the region, including Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China and even the USA.
The riders will be embarking on an epic 14-day ride in a convoy from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur and then finally to Hatyai and Krabi in Thailand.
According to information in a SEA HOG Rally leaflet, "With the keen interest expressed by HOG International and The Harley Motor Company, the wheels were put into motion in early 2008 to have a SEA HOG Rally jointly organised by the five HOG Chapters from the Southeast Asia Region, Brunei Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand.
"So, in the true spirit of the Harley Brotherhood and to even better enhance the already strong ties between various SEA HOG Chapters, the joint committee decided to name this historic rally 'The 1st SEA HOG Rally 2010', which truly embodies the Harley Spirit in its name."
The SEA HOG Rally is a truly historic event, and is a milestone for not only the HOGB, but also Harley Owners Groups around the South East Asia region.
The HOGB working committee said that they "would like to thank Seri Sentosa, Harley Davidson Brunei, Baiduri Finance, Brunei Tourism, Bmobile and Mvision Cinema for their generous sponsorship and support." The Brunei participants will be returning on June 15.-- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
