Welcome from Riverview, FL. W are really lucky to be able to ride all year. I have ridden in PA, Europe, GA and Calf. This is my favorite. Ride over the Sunshine Skyway bridge when you get a chance. It will make you pucker.

Thanks for the welcome, Jeff you are right there is some nice riding here. I was born and raised in Clearwater, but I have lived a lot of diffrerent places (I am reitring from the military this year after 30 years), the wildest place to ride was San Francisco. The only way I managed to retain my sanity was by splitting lanes on the freeway. Did you ever get a chance to ride over the old Skyway? It was really a thrill with the long metal grate at the top. This is my current ride, this was taken at my wedding reception, we rode the Harley from the church to the reception (tux and wedding dress on).

Welcome to the forum. North Florida here, we were in the low 30's over the weekend and downright cold and windy. Got nice today, hit 64 and went for a nice three hour ride.

Thanks for the welcome, I couldn't resist one more shot of the bike in front of Bridal Veil Fallls in North Carolina. We took the trip a couple of years ago on the way to the dragon, unfortunately hurricanes kept us from making it to the dragon. We'll be there in June this year though!
