Default 115th Parade Passes

Is there any truth to the "rumor" I have heard that if you bought a new 2018 HD you receive a free pass to the 115th parade?.....

As we got the wife a new Fatboy in the 115th Anniversary colors that she fell in love with I asked the salesman and he truly looked confused when I asked him about this. Being that we only live 60miles from Milwaukee and will be there anyways kinda interested in doing it.

Thanks...Scott

I think I remember seeing it somewhere on here under what topic I can't remember though, about if you bought an '18 you got a free pass to parade.......I think it might have been during a discussion about the rally packages but can't find it again.

Thanks...Scott

Pretty sure they will do a lottery like in the past. At the 95th it was a fuster cluck, way, way too many riders. Ever since they have limited the number of riders. Looks like there is/was a Chrome Experience Pack for $995, includes:
https://www.harley-davidson.com/stor...nce-rally-pack
  • 115th Anniversary T-Shirt
  • 115th Anniversary Tote
  • 115th Anniversary H-D Cooling Towel
  • Harley-DavidsonŽ Cell Phone Battery Charger
  • 115th Anniversary Mini Poster
  • 115th Anniversary Sticker
  • Harley-DavidsonŽ BluetoothŽ Wireless Earbuds with Mic
  • Harley-DavidsonŽ Neoprene Face Mask
  • Flat Out Friday Powered by Harley-DavidsonŽ Ticket (valid Friday 8/31/18 for one entry)
  • 115th Anniversary Wristband
  • 'Peace Guy' print (Reproduction 9”x 12” print of original art by Willie G. Davidson)
  • Harley-DavidsonŽ Portable Camera & 16GB SD Card
  • Harley-DavidsonŽ Parade Pass (valid Sunday 9/2 for 1 Harley-Davidson motorcycle, rider and passenger)
  • $100 Harley-Davidson MuseumŽ Gift Card (valid 363 days/year at The Harley-Davidson Museum, The Shop, MOTOR Bar & Restaurant and Can Room)

Here is info from HD site:
https://www.harley-davidson.com/us/e...il-parade.html

Be a part of the celebration as thousands ride through the streets of downtown Milwaukee celebrating 115 years of freedom before landing at the lakefront for one final hurrah.

Be amazed at every turn as riders from around the world wave their hometown flags proudly right here in the birthplace of Harley-Davidson. Riders and the community will line the route to see the beauty and the brawn of customized motorcycles and unique show bikes. Harley-Davidson has invited tens of thousands of riders from around the world to ride in the parade including custom bike builders, stunt teams, charitable groups, HOG Chapters, as well as a few surprise guests. The parade is special, and we design it to be entertaining for spectators and a highly memorable experience for riders.

There are four ways for you to get involved:
  1. Sweepstakes -- Harley-Davidson riders can enter for a chance to win a spot in the parade at Harley-Davidson events in the U.S. by participating in the Adventure Challenge. They can visit the Harley-Davidson display at Daytona Bike Week (March 10-17), Laughlin River RunŽ (April 25-28), Laconia Motorcycle WeekŽ (June 9-17) and Hot Harley Nights™ (July 12-15) for more information.
  2. More chances to win passes will be announced as we draw closer to the Anniversary. Interested riders should stay tuned to H-D.com throughout the year for more opportunities to win parade passes.
  3. During the Anniversary Celebration Week in Milwaukee – H-D representatives will be handing out numerous parade passes at events in and around the city. Riders will have the opportunity to score passes by just taking part in the celebration.
  4. If you want to guarantee a spot in the parade, there is a limited quantity of Chrome Experience Rally Packs for sale (while supplies last). The rally pack contains commemorative merchandise, electronics, a $100 H-D Museum gift card and exclusive experiences all around the city, including one parade pass.
The parade kicks off at 45th Street and Wisconsin Avenue, continues east through downtown Milwaukee and lands at the Harley-Davidson 115th Anniversary and HOG 35th Moto-Carnival at Veterans Park. We’ve welcomed them home, and we’ll send them off in style.

You can also get a parade pass by:
  • HOG Chapters get 3 (I think) passes for a designated member to sign up for the Parade of Flags.
  • If you enter the Skills Competition, you will get a pass for the parade.
I'm doing the Skills competition and will be riding in the parade next to people that, hopefully, know how to ride.
