Been riding for 30+ years. Had a break after the divorce in '08, but back in the saddle again. After owning a bunch of metrics, got the itch after meeting up with some great folks at Daytona in '93. Got back to NY and sold my two Hondas and aquired a '78 FXEF shovel. Big bore and stroked, it was awesome. Wanted to do longer rides so here comes the '01 FLHT standard. Loved that bike. Now, 3 years after losing the Glide in the divorce, picked up a nice '04 FXDI Superglide. Not sure where I want this project to go, but I'm sure I will get plenty of ideas from this forum. I'll try and post some pics real soon.
