Default Hey all

My name is Mike. I ride a 2005 FLHRCI (Road King Classic). I'm sort of new at this. I started riding after the MSF Rider Safety Course back in March of 2006. I started out on a Softail Standard, but it didn't suit me. The Road King is just right!
I wish I could have started out riding earlier in my life. It took me 35 years to find the time and money to devote to this. Truth be told, I had never really considered riding until a few years ago, then I just had to get out there!
I am out on the road just about every day. I commute to work on my bike, find excuses to go do errands so I can ride the scoot, and I especially love to explore the back country of North Carolina, where I've lived since moving here from Hawaii in 2005. (Please. Hawaii was not at all what it's cracked up to be!)
So I'm here to learn as much as I can, and to talk with other like-minded people about my favorite subject: HD.
