lthough the Hendersonville, TN Police Department had a Motor Unit in the past, it was eliminated over the last three years. There were two 2003 Electra Glide®
motor-
cycles and the Motor Officers rode spo- radically. In December, 2011, new Chief Mickey Miller (a 33 ½ year veteran of the Metro Police Dept before taking over as
Hendersonville’s Chief in October 2010) re-instituted the Traffi c Division and formed the Blue Eagles Motor Unit. With the addition of six new 2012 Police Bikes rented from
