Hello from Attica NY. Happy to be here with all. Sitting here recovering from motrcycle crash on 9/26/09. Lost a nice 2003 UltraClassic Anniversary bagger when a van ran a red light. Picking up a 2008 CVO UltraClassic 105th Anniversary bagger next week. Hoping to be well enough to do some riding in before the snow flys.

Thanks for the kind words. No broken bones in the crash. The bike and the van are both a total loss but the bluesman gets to ride again! Doctors say I shouln't be standing. Had enough xrays and mri's to get me glowing in the dark.
