Just inherited a 1976 Electra Glide from my dad (Pappy) whose ongoing bout with cancer at age 70 has left him too weak to continue a tradition of cruising. So, I promised him I'd keep the bike in the family and keep it cruising for him. He spent a lot of time and money over the years on this sweet bike (photos to come later), and now it's up to me to keep it running and doing what it does best...cruising the highways and byways of this great country of ours. Look forward to using the forums to help me along the way. A safe and happy riding season to all.

Stick around and have some fun with us.

My second (out of 11) Harley was a 76 FLH. One of the best bikes I ever owned. Let me know if you need anything.
