Default Hey from Massachusetts

Hi Peeps,
I ride a 2011 FXDC, Dyna Super Glide Custom. Used bike new to me this year. I'm a "retread." I rode many years ago, but got back into riding a couple years ago. Took the MSF New Rider Course to get my license. Learned a lot about handing the bike safely while still having lots of fun. Followed up with the MSF Experienced Rider Course. My drive to work sucks more than you can imagine, now I do a fun bike ride morning and evening. The Dyna is a fun bike on the backroads yet solid enough for the highways. Loving it. I'm getting into forums and such to continue learning from others, in hopes of making good decisions, good relationships, and good times. Currently, I'm researching power upgrades to see what I might want to do to make the bike just that much more responsive.


Here's my bike, in the parking lot at work. If the roads are clear and it's over 40F, I ride.
