WE GIVE OUR FREE TIME IN PROMOTING SAFE RIDING, MOTORCYCLE AWARENESS AND WORKING TOWARDS A GOOD ENVIRONMENT FOR OUR COMMUNITIES .

 OUR MEMBERSHIP SPREADS MOSTLY THROUGH THE CENTRE TO SOUTH OF THE OKANAGAN.

We are a registered society, founded more than 20 years ago.

 We work towards , through the sale of raffle tickets on OSNS Harley Davidson raffle every year, giving back to our favourite charities in our communities. We assist OSNS every year with transportation of the raffle bike to various events around the province .

We support various local non profit organizations. Click on the Disbursment Page. 

We also donate our Good News Bear, "OMAR" to CHBC every year to help raise money for the local food banks.

We work at M&M's Charity B.B.Q. every year where all the proceeds go to Chron's & colitus.

This year, as in the past, we presented OSNS with a cheque for their Variety Club Telethon which is shown on Shaw Cable.

 We also sponsor the annual Toy Run every fall to help out less fortunate children in the Valley.

We are eager to keep helping and to always have fun while we are doing it.

A quote from one of our very active members:  "You have a lot more fun when you jump in with both feet and be in the thick of things" 

Help & participating is what makes the group successful.

 The Okanagan motorcycling community has been saddened by the passing of an icon.
Ride In Peace, Kokanee Bob.

 

 SMITH, ROBERT L.: It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of Robert L. Smith, often referred to as "Kokanee Bob" or "Ranger Smith", on Thursday, November 4, 2010, at Vancouver General Hospital. Thanks go to the staff at Vancouver General Hospital for their compassionate care and excellent service. Bob was well known throughout British Columbia particularly the Okanagan Valley and Alberta. Bob was an extremely avid motorcycling and camping enthusiast, as well as a volunteer for the Ironman Canada Penticton Motorcycle team, for many years. Bob also assisted in coaching the Penticton Ladies Softball Team to championship back in the 1980’s. Bob was greatly respected for his unique talent as an excellent automotive painter, including custom cars and motorcycles. Bob’s sense of humour and general kindness was always at the forefront of any gathering. He is predeceased by his father, Ralph of Millet, Alberta, and is survived by his mother, Adena, brothers Philip and wife Hilda and children, Jim and wife Heather and children, and the extended Smith Family in Alberta, and former wife June of Penticton, and many friends Bob made over the years. A celebration of his life will take place sometime in the Spring of 2011, at a date to be announced later. In lieu of flowers or gifts, donations to the BC Lung Association would be appreciated. Condolences may be sent to the family through providencefuneralhomes.com.

ROY & JO-ANN FROM SUMMERLAND
Road Captian

***********************************

 

I own a DJ company and play music for weddings and hall parties. 
I like playing pool, darts, golf, blackjack and poker, even though
 I'm not very good at any of them.
I have been riding for over 30 years and have never once been pulled over on a bike. (Knock on wood!)

I got my first Harley in the Spring of 2003 and moved from Spruce Grove, Alberta to Penticton that Fall. 
I had Open Heart Surgery in April of 2004 and wasn't allowed to ride at all that summer.  I've since decided that Life Is Here To Be Savored. I have ridden every chance I get since then. 
Everyone should just Stop! and re-examine their priorities from time to time.
Taking the day off to go for a ride or go to the beach is now at the top of my list. Give me a call if you want to come along some time.
