Albany attorney Jerry Brimberry, had recently become the proud owner of a Harley Davidson.
One evening, coming back from dinner in his vehicle, he was at a stop light, when two Harley riders, Jerry Johnson and Mark Lewis, pulled up to the light. Jerry rolled down his window and exchanged greetings and addresses.
The first meeting was held in September, 1990, with about 6 or 7 persons in attendance...thus the IHRA was born.

On the 10th Anniversary meeting of the IHRA, on September 2000, because of his performance and extraordinary service to the IHRA and with the unanimous vote of all the members, Jerry Brimberry was indoctrinated as an IHRA Lifetime Member.
