Hi there, I'm new to the forum as you may have guessed, My name is Hilmar and I'm From Garšabęr Iceland, I've been part of the Harley-Davidson community for 5 years, and work for the dealership in Iceland as an "engineer apprentice" for 4 years now. I don't have a bike at the moment but I get to ride most of the bikes we get in the shop. My goal right now is a Sportster 883 C, because I'm only 16 and I have to be 21 to ride everything above the 883 types, I choose the Harley as my bike and nothing else.
Good luck on scoring the Sporty. Whats the riding season look like over there?
Riding here this summer was great, I would say now is the last chance riding in Iceland before snow hits the roads, just the daring ones ride here in the winter hehe.
And If it's not to much to ask from anyone who see's this, please add me on myspace if you can ( www.myspace.com/hilmarhd ) It's always nice to keep in touch with riders from other countries.
