#RideHVMC is the home of all things rad by Hudson Valley Motorcycles, a family owned Ducati dealership in Ossining New York, celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. As lovers of two wheeled machines, we often find ourselves engulfed in a huge variety of activities which range from our own race team, custom bike builds, and assorted events and track schools. #RideHVMC was founded so we could share our passion for the sport and ongoing projects with all of our friends and fans in one place! #RideHVMC will give you insight into what is going on at Hudson Valley Motorcycles on a day-to-day basis. #RideHVMC is not a company, nor is it a traditional brand. It is our family, and you’re invited to join us at the dealership, the racetrack, or on the streets and backroads! Please visit www.hudsonvalleymotorcycles.com and www.ridehvmc.com to learn more!
MJRS Freeman Racing is the result of many years of successful collaboration and racing partnership between Jon Freeman, Richie Alexander Jr., and Corey Alexander. As an avid enthusiast and racing patron, Jon Freeman has been directly involved with Richie and Corey Alexander for the past four seasons as MJRS Freeman Racing, and contributed to the success Corey has achieved in previous racing efforts.
