Default She's Gone

Due to circumstances beyond my control my assignment in Italy has been shortened by two years. Yesterday I shipped my 2013 FLHRC back to the states. I took delivery here in November 2012 and hadn't even gotten to the 1000 mile mark. I won't see her again till May or June in Corpus Christi. Kind of a bummer, I even had ***** in Rome for the June Harley gathering. At least I got some good riding in this past weekend. On the other hand when we do hook up again I'll be retired and able to go whereever and whenever I want.

Sad news to hear you two will be separated. Hope your re-connection goes without a hitch.

Sorry for your loss.

On the other hand, the next time you see her, it'll be late spring in Texas. The best time for riding.

Now...what the heck is a *****?

Ride Safe

I would hate to put the bike on a carrier and say goodbye, but it sounds like it will work out well if you are that close to retirement. Good for you.
