Hi All,

This is a great site! I ride an '07 Heritage Softail and my wife, just completed her rider safety course is riding a '11 883 Sporster Low Profile. We live in the DFW area, but prefer the back country roads and Texas Hill Country. I look forward to learning and sharing.

Thanks,
Brent

We bought her bike at Longhorn Harley in Grand Praire, and the riders class was part of the package. Man, it's in her blood.... I think I lost my fender bunny. But hey she is still riding with me.

hog.ryder,
What is the place on the edge of town? Softails? Is that a pretty cool place to go to and hang out? I have been scuba diving in Terrell for the last two years and have always thought that looked like a cool place to ride to sometime.

Your correct, it's Softails. It's an OK place to hang out for a little while, normally some local bands playing every weekend, lots of bikes to look at during the nice weather.
