Default New guy in So Cal

Hey everyone, just doing the new guy wave.

I've been lurking around and reading posts for a little while so I figured it was time to actually speak up. I haven't been riding long, but I've always been around people who rode and spent a lot of years dreaming about getting my chance. Got my first bike a little over a year ago and I picked up my first Harley, an '07 Fatboy, this June. Not sure what else to say here, so I'll leave it at that.

Shamed to say I didn't actually have a picture so I just walked out and snapped one.
