Default Hello To all
Hello

My name is Chris and I wish I had found this forum years ago! Sold my 2002 Nightrain a year ago and finally was able to get a new bike this month. I bought a 2011 Street Glide FLHX103. I just retired from 24 years in the Navy and moved to Austin Texas, therefore I do not know anyone here so always looking for friends to ride with.

Thank you for your appreciation. I loved my time in the Navy! Now I have no more deployments to keep me off my bike.
