Hi all-
&nbsp\\;
I'm new to the world of Harley's.&nbsp\\; The last bike I owned was 30 years ago and now my kids are out of school my career is settled and I decided to start riding.
&nbsp\\;
I just purchsed a '99 Sportster C.&nbsp\\; I'm just getting my feet wet riding around town.
&nbsp\\;
I'm looking forward to meeting a lot of new people a making some new friends.
