New member saying hi. I'm not exactly new to riding but new to Harley and love the site. I'm 43, live in Chicago, married and have 2 kids.
My brother died last year and before he passed I took possession of his 2000 Harley. Before then I did not have much interest in riding because of work and family life, but after his passing and riding the bike a few times I realized how much it meant to him. Maybe it was something we would have eventually done together if he were alive. So I ride for him, I try to live and enjoy the lifestyle, and I hope I'm making him proud.
Since then I have bought a 2015 Ultra Limited so my wife had a couch to sit on when we ride together, and have joined a local MC.
Thank you for the forums and to the members that make this such a great site.
