Hello from Ohio !

My name is Tony and I am from Canton, Ohio. Been riding motorized two wheels from the age of 8. Started with a new 5 hp K-Mart mini bike in 1968. I have owned many bikes over the years. My last street bike was a Kawasaki 900 with many mods on it. It was fast and that was 1986. Ill be 50 this year in November and days are in short supply so I took the plunge. It started with my son talking about then buying a 2010 Wide Glide, you know the black one with the flames....He's gonna be 21 in September, that bike fits him. I then bought my wife, yes my wife a 2006 883 Sporty with 306 miles on it. She's in love with this whole riding thing. She's got all the gear, shoes, gloves, jacket, helmet, boots etc...! She has never ridden a street bike in her life but has rode 3 wheelers and dirt bikes in her day. After hours and days in a huge church parking lot she's was ready for the open road. She has come a long way in a short time. Every day after work now its "are we going out riding tonight ?" Loves going to bike nite and getting girly patches put on her jacket.....Then came my bike, I bought a 2010 Fat Boy in Black Ice Pearl with the chrome wheels on it. In a months time we have put 1000 miles together on them. I know its not much for a month but we have had a great time together on them. We love going to bike nites in the area and meeting and talking to people you would never have given the time of day to...Must be the Harley thing ! Cant wait to put more miles on them this summer. That's are for now and im glad I found this forum lots of great info here. Oh and one more thing...That Harley wave is wearing my arm out ! !
