Thumbs up

As an introduction of myself to the forum, I ride a Harley Softail Classic. My wife rides a Harley Low Rider. This time last year, neither of us had ever been on a motorcycle. We have now our motorcycle licenses. Last year I did just over 7500 miles including a trip to the bike fest in Killarney, Ireland and also the bike fest in Aviemore, Scotland. It's been brilliant being part of the Harley community. I really enjoyed participating in the fortnightly ride outs which took us to many new places around the north of Ireland. I have met a lot of good people who enjoy riding the roads. I am looking forward to making more likeminded friends and also to beating the 7500 miles I achieved last year.
Thanks
Aidan

Here is a wee picture of my wife and I last summer in Newcastle, Co Down, N Ireland:
