Default New Guy from IN

Hello…

New Guy here from Southern Indiana just across the river from Louisville. Just became the very proud owner of a new 2020 Heritage Classic in Black, my 1st Harley. Had 6 miles on it when I picked it up, threw the wife on the back and put 450 on it the 1st weekend…

Been a car guy most of my life, I’m an active autoX’r and also do the occasional track day & time attack events. Just started riding on the street a couple years ago, did a little dirt biking as a teenager but that was many many years ago. After getting my endorsement I picked up a 2008 Shadow for a starter bike and put a couple seasons worth of miles on it before looking for “my” bike. That day came a couple weeks ago and I’ve been a kid on Christmas since… anyway, looking forward to hanging out, Thanks! Tom
