Default Another newbie to the forums!

After being stuck in a cage (a car not a cell lol) for almost 20 years I am back living the dream!! Started last year with the purchase of a Honda Shadow aero from a friend last may. Quickly grew tired of the 750 cc motor and in September bought my very first HD a 1999 Ultra classic and have been riding it any chance i get! even when it was 20 degrees out i was out on the bike. Now I have my wife and oldest son taking a beginners riding class next month! Living and loving the dream here in Spokane Wa!!
