Pope Francis is auctioning off the Harley-Davidson and leather jacket given him by Catholic bikers:
It may come as a surprise to learn that Pope Francis owns a Harley-Davidson.
The Pope has now announced plans to auction the bike off to raise money for charity.
PopeWatch assumes it was inevitable. A 77 year old man riding a motorcycle, unless he has many years of experience, is probably not a safe idea. However, part of me would have loved seeing the Pope, riding American metal, charging into Saint Peter’s square!
that would have been a great sight– something about the spirit of the people riding out on their metal steeds is just kind of moving –
They will get a lot of money for that over in Europe. I would say that might have been the intent when they gave it to him, unless he is an avid rider.
Seeing a pope on a harley-wow. It gives me only impression: Pope Easy-Rider lol
It warms my heart! Been a Harley fan for 60+ years. My dad and all my brother’s rode and three of my brother’s still have their’s. I however, have given up Harley’s and horses. I just look at them now. (Well I feed and take care of the horse)
