HOG MEMBER OF THE MONTH
"October"

Jim Orr
"Big Dog"

Jim, aka “Big Dog” (to his kids), has been riding motorcycles for more that 40 years!
He has been a HOG member for 11 years. He currently rides a Red ’02 Ultra with
106,000 miles on her and “she runs Great!” Jim has owned 10 motorcycles over the
years and 3 of them have been Harley’s. His ’02 Ultra is also known as “Baby Girl”.

Jim is married to Jeana and they ride together whenever they can. You can mostly
see Jim riding solo throughout the county with his hair blowing in the wind and an
occasional cigar. Jim & Jenna have 2 children and 3 grandchildren. They have been
married for 32 years! Jim is the Owner of “Orr’s Floor Covering” in Mansfield.
J
im enjoys all types of riding and has been known to go a ton of miles in a short period
of time. Jim has been riding since he was 12 years old and in that same year he had
his first wreck. In that incident Jim cracked his skull but that didn’t stop him from riding.
During his High school years Jim did a bit of dirt bike racing and hill climbing. He still
enjoys going to watch the racing and climbing. Jim has visited 29 states and has been
to a lot of rallies and he likes the smaller ones the best! He regularly enjoys day trips
of 200-300 miles.

The Endless Mountains HOG Chapter has been fortunate to had Jim as an Associate
Director and Road Captain. He is always ready for a ride! You can find and almost
every event lending a helping hand. He especially enjoys the card stops at the annual
Poker Run! He would like to see us change the stops of the Poker Run a bit so he
can plan some more routes that we can enjoy. You can also find Jim at a good
number of the dinner rides. Jim told me that he thinks that the people in the HOG
Chapter are “Great” and he enjoys riding with other members whenever he gets the
chance. If you see a bike coming toward you and the driver has a great big smile on
his face….give him a wave….. It just might be Jim ! 
