Welcome Steve,

You are right, this is a great forum. There are a bunch of friendly and knowledgeable members here. It's fun to meet members from your area and ride with them. I've met several over the past year and have had a blast with them. Stick around and have some fun with us. Where are you from. You can go back to your Profile and add your city if your want. That way people in your general area will contact you for some cool rides when the weather gets better.

Thanks Terry, I went back to my profile and entered the town I'm from (Pekin, IN), but didn't see it appear anywhere.
Pekin is about 35 miles north of Louisville Ky.
Normally this time of year we are like the rest of the northern hemisphere, cold and miserable. However, this January has been incredible. I picked up my 06 EG Ultra (Scarlet Red/Charcoal) on the 4th of this month and as of Sunday had put my first 1000 miles on it. Yesterday, rainy, today snowflakes, tomorrow low 50's and my day off. I'll have it in the wind again...
