Leaders ‘blown away’ by support
Horsham Harley Owners Group director Bopp Greenberger has thanked Horsham residents for their support for helping the organisation make its social event for motorcycle riders last weekend a success.
About 200 Harley Davidson motorcycle owners from across Australia rode into Horsham on Friday and left the municipality on Sunday.
Riders travelled through different parts of the Wimmera, visiting attractions such as Mount Arapiles, Halls Gap and Roses Gap.
Horsham Apex Club and Horsham Agricultural Society members volunteered their services to support the event.
Horsham owners group registration co-ordinator Lyn Greenberger said Horsham mayor Robyn Gulline attended the rally.
“She got onto the back of Bopp’s bike for the Thunder Run, rode with everyone and had a good time. The riders were impressed,” she said.
Mr Greenberger said he was ‘blown away’ by Horsham support.
“I thank the whole community that got behind us,” he said.
“I’m proud of what we accomplished.
“We are a small chapter in Australia and the Harley Davidson officials were surprised how well organised the event was.”
