Default New HD rider...

Hey all,
&nbsp\\;
I have been checking out the message boards and this is a pretty cool site. Just got my first Harley about 6 weeks ago, 2008 Road King FLHR, and I absolutely love it. I have been riding since I was 10, am now 45. Where did all the time go? About to roll over 4500 miles on my RK.
&nbsp\\;
Ride safe,
&nbsp\\;
Mike
