Hey everyone.

I've lurked around on this forum for a while and posted a few things here and there but I figured it is time to post an intro.

I ride a 2008 Deluxe that I have absolutely fallen in love with. This is the second bike I've owned. The first was a 2004 Suzuki Intruder. It was great for when I was first learning. I have about 3k miles under my belt, and I wanted to get a bike that was better balanced and a little more suited to my style of riding.

I love to be out cruising with my husband. I have little desire to go really fast and enjoy being out on the road. I'm currently a fair weather rider but I'm looking into getting some cold weather gear that would change that.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone around here.
