Hello everyone, After sitting back and useing this forum, I decided it was time to contribute, If i can...I am not a new rider, However, I am getting back into it with a vengence. Have spent the last 22 years in the Air Force and bringing a bike everywhere THEY decide to send me and the family really wasnt an option. SOOO I am now retired from the AF, Have a 97 Fatty with 18" apes and ride the ---- crap outa it. My Wife also rides, Her current ride is an 03 Sporty. This is the best forum I have visited, so I think I will stay if ya all let me. BTW, I am located in Cent. California, Santa Maria, which is a very excellent place to ride, Mountains, Ocean, Desert, Hot , cold you name it. So if you are heading this way or already live nearby PM me for any assistance.
Lotsa great folks on here...I'm rather new myself...but am really glad I signed up. As for retirement...I still have a 'few good years' in me before I retire from the US Chair Force or is it the US Air Farce...I keep forgetting. That being said for all the Marines, Army and Navy folks out there...Seriously, though...Take care and enjoy all that beautiful scenery and weather out there in Cali.
Welcome to the forum. Glad you found us. You are right, this is the best Harley forum on the net. There are a bunch of great people here who love to help when they can. Jump right in and give us some advice when you can. The weather here in Illinois sucks right now. 25 degrees with 6 " of snow and it's still coming down[:@].
Hi Steve, Welcome from Southern Virginia. Thank you for your service and the sacrifice you and your family have made for our country. This is a Great Forum......with Great Folks!!!! Glad you decided to join in on the fun!!!
