MILWAUKEE, USA – November 1, 2024 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – Harley-Davidson’s storied and legendary commitment to service men and women dates back more than a century when General “Black Jack” Pershing enlisted Harley-Davidson® motorcycles in a series of skirmishes along the U.S. and Mexican border. During World War II, H-D built more than 70,000 military vehicles for the US military and its allies, including the UK, Canada and Russia. That famed WLA – which is featured in the H-D Museum’s military gallery – is often referred to as “the bike that won the war.”

And that unwavering commitment continues to this day. For Veterans Day weekend, the H-D Museum offers all active-duty military and veterans and their families free admission (Nov. 9 – 11)*. And on Veterans Day (Nov. 11), MOTOR® Bar & Restaurant ups the appreciation for our armed forces when veterans and active military personnel can enjoy one complimentary meal (up to $14.95) with the purchase of a beverage. Additionally, the Harley-Davidson® Shop will also offer a 10% discount for purchases made by active military personnel and veterans throughout the day.

This weekend also marks the last chance to check out the H-D Museum’s first bilingual exhibit, “My Papi Has a Motorcycle” / “Mi Papi Tiene una Moto,” before it closes on Nov. 3. Take one last trip with author Isabel Quintero and illustrator Zeke Peña and share in the freedom and fun parents and their kids find when they take to two wheels.

The Bridge Gallery will then be prepped for a new photography exhibit, “Ezy Ryders: History & Tradition, Heart & Soul,” which is being produced with the assistance of documentarian Cate Dingley, author of the book Ezy Ryders. Opening Nov. 23, this series of photos is a celebration of life on two wheels. Dingley interviewed and photographed Black riders in New York City over a five-year period, learning about their back stories and why they ride today. The stunning photos portray a community of riders, made up of people from all walks of life who come together over a common bond. Make tracks to view this new exhibition beginning Saturday, Nov. 23.

Don’t forget that the H-D Museum is a great experience over the long holiday weekends. Bring friends and family visiting Milwaukee to the crossroads of 6th & Canal to learn more about this legendary global brand that began…
