Meet Lori, our Rider of the Month!
Rider of the Month
Rider of the Month: Lori H.
30+ Years on Two Wheels - And Still Riding Strong
Lori H.'s riding story starts in 1993 - on the back of her boyfriend’s Shovelhead. One year later, they were married. And by 1995, Lori wasn’t riding as a passenger anymore: she got her first Harley-Davidson, a Heritage Softail, and has been riding her own bike ever since.
She rode to Sturgis in 2005 and again in 2015, and says with a smile: “Yes… we are due again.” Their favorite place to ride to and through is Zion, Utah. They ride a lot, and their circle of friends rides just as hard.
“We ride a lot, we have a great circle of friends and everyone loves to ride.”
This month, we’re proud to celebrate Lori as our Beyond Riders Rider of the Month - a true motorcycle rider with decades of miles, stories, and community behind her.
On the Road with Lori
The Red Jacket That Says It All
Lori is known as “LilRedHarleyHood” - and now her red Beyond Riders jacket completes the look. As experience builds, priorities shift, and for Lori that means leaning into protection more than ever:
“The older I get, the more I rely on my gear.”
When it comes to putting in miles, she makes it crystal clear what she’s choosing:
“And trust me when I say my miles will be in this red Beyond Riders shirt, not the HD one.”
Her advice to every motorcycle rider is simple, direct, and powerful:
“Wear it!”
