Default Thanks

Thanksfor the welcome guys.

I've been riding for about 33yrs the last 23 on Harleys. In that time I've owned an '81 Ironhead sporty, '81Tourglide (shovelhead), '81 shovelhead chop,'82 FXRS (shovelhead),'78 FLH (shovelhead), '84 4spd Softail (now sorry I sold it), '92 FXLR, 00 Lowrider and my current '97 Fatboy.Also have a '75 Triumph T160 Trident which I've rebuilt about 1000 miles ago.

Anybody ever been over here (Ireland) ? I hope to visit US next year, have a pal who lives in Florida pretty close to Daytona. Any recommendations as to where to visit?

Cheers & beers

Hey welcome! Ireland is one of the places I really want to visit. Have had several friends visit and love it. There's a lot of country to visit over here in the States. Where you might go would be dependent on how much time you have and what you want to see. There's a lot to see in Florida, especially with a friend in Daytona.
