Default Hello from Ottawa

I just joined the forums, some great info here, maybe get to make some new friends. I purchased my first Harley Davidson this fall, a 2009 Fat Bob, it looks so nice, unfortunately, I just got it two weeks ago and we have white stuff on the ground for the next four months, I already look at the calendar everyday just itching to get out. Hello to everyone!!!!!!!

Hi neighbour! I just finished shovelling my driveway. It's not winter that I hate, it's not being able to ride!

Welcome to the forum! A lot of good information here.

Linda

P.S. Maybe all of us from Ottawa should have coffee or something!

Hey Linda, it took me 45 min to shovel, I went inside for 2 seconds, and you guessed it, the snowplow left me a beautiful wall of snowcrete.....another 20 mins. of shovelling....

Ps. let's ll get together for coffee, anyone else??

I would be up for meeting for a coffee, Thanks to everyone for all the warm welcomes. I haven't shovelled the laneway yet, but will be out in full snow suit in about fifteen minutes.
