As far as I can tell, yes. I'm using last years info for now. Even though I'm disappointed with the prizes(or lack of) this year. Got 8 points this past Sunday. 92 to go. 
With my trip to Rolling Thunder and to Ottawa for the Canadian National HOG rally, I should have no problem getting 92 points.
Have fun with your challenge.
Just found mine. Here is the 2017 rules and reg's
You do get an extra point for the H-D facilities then you did last year. Plus you can send in your photos to their website instead of mailing them.

yes, submitting photos online is WAY easier. some of my submissions show upside down when I upload them, despite NOT being upside down on my machine. and before someone asks...yes I have tried actually rotating them on my machine and then uploading. anyone else with this nonsense?

At least sending them by mail, they can't be accidently deleted or hacked. I don't want the FBI and CIA knowing where I go.
At least I have my backup copies at home on a disk.
I hope I can figure out how to upload the pics. Nothing else is simple on the H-D website.

I think I read somewhere it doesn't come out until April.
I had the most points last year then I've ever had - over 100
But I have already received my goodies.

Thanks for posting the results - I still can't find the ABC's page on the Harley website. I thought they had the wrong total for me last year. I was sure I was over 100, but that was in 2015. I did 91 last year. Time flies when you're having fun - right??
I'm cutting way back this year and not going out of my way to get a point since the prizes - or lack of - are pretty **** poor this year. Harley must be hurting for money. They use to have some pretty neat stuff - now it's only a $25 gift card - big deal. Everywhere I go people ask about the cool ABC's of Touring logoed items I have.....like the hoodie/back pack/cooler/selfie stick/1/8th scale model of the engine(my favorite)/swiss army knife/hat with built in flashlight/portable power pack/insolated water bottle/HOG magazine cover with your picture on It - etc, etc. Pretty cool stuff, right?? Now, just a gift card - that will impress people.
Harley had a great thing going with this and now just dropped the ball. Thanks Harley.

I can never find the link to the ABC's on the HOG Site. I have only been able to navigate to it by selecting several links. I think I follow:
