Years Of Motorcycle Experience
When a small group of Harley enthusiasts gathered back in 1994, they shared more than a passion for motorcycles. They shared a vision: to create a community where riders could come together, explore Scotland’s finest roads, and build friendships that would last a lifetime.
That vision became Dunedin H.O.G.® Chapter #9083.
Named after Dùn Èideann — the historic Gaelic name for Edinburgh — our chapter was built on Scottish pride and Harley heritage from day one.
What started as a handful of riders has grown into one of the strongest Harley-Davidson communities in Scotland — and indeed, the UK. Today, we’re proud to be recognised as Scotland’s largest H.O.G.® chapter, with members from across the Lothians, Fife, the Borders, and beyond.
But we’ve never lost sight of what matters most: good roads, good people, and great memories.
| Year | Milestone |
|---|---|
| 1994 | Chapter founded with 12 charter members |
| 2000 | First official charity fundraiser |
| 2008 | Became sponsored chapter of West Coast Harley Davidson |
| 2015 | Reached 100+ active members |
| 2024 | Celebrated 30th anniversary |
As we start our new relationship with West Coast Harley-Davidson goes back years — and we couldn’t ask for better partners. As an authorised Harley-Davidson dealership, they keep our members on the road with expert service, genuine parts, and that legendary Harley welcome.
We’re grateful for their ongoing support of our chapter and the wider Scottish riding community.
Yes, we ride. But Dunedin is about so much more:
🏍️ Ride Together – From Sunday morning breakfast runs to week-long Highland adventures
🤝 Brotherhood & Sisterhood – Riders who look out for each other, on and off the road
📍 ABC 365 – Our year-round mileage challenge that keeps us motivated
🍻 Social Spirit – Pub meetups, seasonal events, and celebrations
❤️ Giving Back – Annual charity fundraising chosen by our members
🔧 Shared Knowledge – Customising tips, mechanical advice, and bike talk
As one member put it: “I joined for the bike. I stayed for the people.”
From the sweeping curves of the Pentlands to the coastal routes of Fife, from the Borders’ rolling hills to the epic landscapes of the Highlands — we’re spoiled for choice.
Some favourite Dunedin routes:
The Fife Coastal Run – Anstruther fish and chips never tasted so good
Border Reivers Circuit – History and hairpins
Loch Lomond & The Trossachs – Scotland in all her glory
North Coast 500 – The ultimate bucket-list ride (often tackled as a chapter trip)
We’re proud of our history — but we’re even more excited about the future. New members join us every year, bringing fresh energy, new bikes, and their own stories to add to the Dunedin tale.
Whether you’ve been riding Harleys for decades or just picked up your first Sportster, you’ll find a place with us.
