Default Hello from the UK!
Hi Everyone,

Just joined today...

I'm an American living in the UK (dual citizenship), and currently reside on the South Coast; Portsmouth area for those of you familiar with the area. We're members of New Forest HOG (NFHOG), and Bridgwater HOG (West Country/Somerset).

Been riding for over 30 years, all makes & models of bikes. Had my mid-life crisis and bought my current Harley ('07 FLHRSI) for my 50th! Love it, love it, love it!!!!

So, a big "Howdy Y'all" (or "Allo") and look forward to "meeting" lots of people here...
