Club Meets
Over the years, there have been many international SOHC/4 meets organized by our members.
The Ride Book
The Ride Book was an idea hatched in 1997 by Linda Julien to commemorate the First New England Ride (NER). On the first page, it is written, “This is Volume I of many of the Journals of the Honda Single Overhead Cam-4 Owners Group”. And so it began. The Journal, or the SOHC/4 Ride Book, as it later became known, was sent around the world to various SOHC/4 events in 1997 and 1998. Events recorded during this third year of the Club’s existence included the First NER, the First WER – West European Ride, the First Mid-West Ride, MWR, and the Honda Hoot Gathering in June 1998.
1997 - First East Coast Gathering
The East Coast SOHC/4 Gathering was a lunch time gathering of some of the mid-atlantic region members that took place in Easton, Maryland on December 6, 1997. Attending were Glenn Stauffer, Bruce Giller and his wife Jane Prive, Doug Barton, and Andrew Price.
