Default Newbie from Ohio...
Hello Everyone!

My name is Kurt and I live in Eastern Ohio. I started riding in 1999 on a Sportster 883 and upgraded to a Night Train in '02 (current ride). Getting ready to do some cosmetic upgrades (handlebar change) and thought I better find some resources on the 'net. Looks like this is the right place.

Most of my riding is commuting to work, short pleasure rides with my better half, solo rides for some "asphalt therapy", etc. My favorite event is Ohio Bike Week and the AHDRA Buckeye Nationals in Sandusky/ Norwalk, OH.

"Ride long, ride loud, ride proud!"
