Hey Guys,

My name is Timo. Sounds like Teamo, but it's short for Timothy.

I am 28 years old and live in Southern New Hampshire. I have been riding a Super Hawk since I was 21 years old and just recently got into Harleys. As a Father's Day gift last year I reserved my Dad and I (He had ridden his whole life, but sold his bike when I was 1 because he never had time to ride) two street glides for the weekend after Veteran's Day.

Wow... why did I not do that sooner?

We travelled over 800 miles in 2 1/2 days and I could have kept going. We didn't want to give them back.

Since that weekend, the both of us have been looking for ways to buy bikes. We were saving and searching all the sites around us for bikes.

Finally (you guys getting tired of reading yet?) we found them!

At Laconia Harley Davidson we bought two Electra Glides last weekend.

I am now a proud HD owner of an 06 Electra Glide Ultra Classic in red and silver. My Dad bought a Blue 09 EG classic.

I plan on posting more about the bike and asking questions in other threads, but I have been reading these forums since last fall to get people's opinions. Lots of knowledge here, it's awesome!

Timo

Wish I was on the sunny shores! I'm plowing snow right now in NH. We got over a foot total.
