USN MA1(SW) 1987-2007 touring the usual shodholes of the world, drinking cheap beer with loose women. Rode with Worldwide MC of Oahu (still do in spirit but only one other of us in AZ) with 75% military or mil contractor. I consider riding my '97 FLSTC a "touring" bike although not classed as such and the '01 XL1200C just when I want to aggravate "service connected disabilities". Hoo-ah... owwww!
