Ladies of Harley (LOH) – West Texas Chapter


Howdy from the West Texas H.O.G. Ladies of Harley!

Who are we, you ask? We’re the Ladies of Harley—fierce women who throttle their own bikes or ride shotgun with style. We’re out here chasing the freedom of the wide-open West Texas roads, soaking up the same rush and camaraderie as the guys. From ranchers to rebels, we’re women of all walks, united by our love for the roar of a Harley and the call of the highway.

Back when more gals started tearing up the asphalt, Ladies of Harley (LOH) was born to crank up women’s roles in H.O.G. and local chapters like ours. No separate club here—LOH is part of the West Texas Chapter family, riding right alongside everyone.

Our West Texas LOH crew doesn’t mess around. We’re active all year, raising dust and dollars for local charities, putting the West Texas Chapter on the map as a force for good. How? We lead our own rides and throw events with grit—think roaring fundraisers and epic outings. Plus, we pitch in on chapter shindigs. Every ride, every event—it’s all for the whole crew to enjoy, and we’re calling on everyone to saddle up and join the fun!

  • We don’t provide alcohol at Chapter events.
  • If someone seems impaired before a ride, they can’t join.
