Default I'm Back!

Hi everyone. Sorry I have not been in touch for a while, just a lot of things going on. Heard from CHarley yesterday and I guess everyone wondered if I gave up riding.

Well not only am I still riding but after putting 37,000 miles on that 2011 "Merlot" Street Glide I decided to trade it in on a 2012 Street Glide with 103 engine and ABS plus, plus.

The best was the dealer (Ft. Myers) swapped everything I wanted off the old bike onto the new bike free of charge. This one is purple with orange flames, quite a beauty.

Hope to get back riding with you all again soon. Seems like Charley and Bob are my major contact with the Crew and I hope we can get together for rides.

Default Great ride Today

Had a great ride today with cHarley, Bob and Sixgun about 200 miles for lunch. Even saw Mike in Moore Haven waving at us in a car with his Grandson as we passed through. It was nice to be back riding with these guys and I have made reservation for the rally and paid for the BBQ. Hope to see you all again soon.
