Default Longtime reader

Hi, I've been snooping around in the forum for months now. Decided to join. I started riding at about 14, got married at 28 (....dry spell, no bike), then wife said I could get a new bike. Bought a new Road King, traded for Road Glide in 03, traded RG for a Street Glide. {Good Wife}
