Hi Friends. I have been lurking for about 2 weeks, soaking up some knowledge from all you Folks. My name is Jim and I live in Mississippi. I've rode bikes since I was 11, paper route started it, plus a good reason to get a bike! But...for the last 20 years all my cash flow went to raising two sons. Now I'm retired and the kids are headed out on life's path. So time for Dad to get back riding. I bought a 2003 Wideglide about a month ago and am enjoying it very much. Nice to be in the family again. JimName:  MeandFreebird.jpg
