Default Hello from Texas!

Hey everyone.

I've been reading this forum for a few weeks now, and seems everyone is really cool and there is a lot of good info posted. I am a newbie as well. Just bought my first Harley about a month ago. A 2005 black cherry night train. Absolutely love it. Never really understood the whole "Harley" thing until now. I am originally from Oregon, but have moved to Texas for military reasons. If there are any questions about riding in Oregon, let me know- I know some beautiful places that would be a joy to ride. Anyway, cool forum and hope everyone has a happy holiday season!

I'm in San Antonio right now. Yeah, I have enjoyed it here so far. Will probably end up moving in June sometime however. I'm in the Air Force. Just commissioned in June and going through training now.

Welcome aboard!

My band, Exciter, played a show in San Antonio back in June... a place called "Randy's Ballroom" I believe.

Cheers!
