The American Dream is personified in the Harley-Davidson brand. Having just celebrated their 120th year, the innovations of three Davidson brothers and William Harley are still going strong to this day.

But for many Harley riders and owners, the Scottish roots of what would become Harley-Davidson, has simply passed us by.

A little cottage in Angus, Scotland, is the ancestal home of the Davidsons, and has been visited by Jochen Zietz and Bill Davidson, to name just two, as part of a pilgrammage back to the very roots of the HD story.

A derelict cottage was saved from destructoin by three Harley enthusiants and through a labour of love, they have restored the cottage back to its full glory. This little cottage is now a Mecca for Harley riders as they visit from right across the UK and Ireland, and also from Europe and further afield.

Mike, one of the original cottage buyers, and Nyree Aitkens, Chairperson of the Davidson Legacy Preservation Group, join the HOG-POD to share the story, where they are today and the plans for the future.

HOG-POD is a podcast for all Harley owners in the UK & Ireland, whether you ride solo, or as part of a group, including the Harley Davidson Riders Club, H.O.G members and H.O.G Chapter members throughout England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland & Northern Ireland.

It is the first podcast of it’s kind for the owners of the worlds finest motorcycles right here in the UK & Ireland.  Now into it's 3rd season, new episodes will release throughout the month and we would love for you to join us.
