I submitted this incredible shot of Blue Mountain to Motorcycle Bagger magazine, (this was in August) The editor emailed me we would be in January 2013 issue. I figured he was blowing me off. 5 months later a buddy of mine calls and says Bro, they put you in the magazine. That was super cool. I bought like 10 copies.
NICE!!!!!!!! Pls tell ur wife, GREAT job!!!!

We are super stoked and can't wait to get back in the saddle. Looking forward to learning and sharing adventures with the forum.

Update: I decided instead to go with Vivid Black Road King Special
