First im not that new well maybe to all of you but I have been reading this site for about 7 months now and WOW what great info. I am in the USAF and currently stationed overseas in England. However I have been currently deployed for 6 months now (just got extended another month due to Sequestration Thanks!!). I have just recently purchased my new ride a 2012 Streetglide BBP. I ordered her just before I left in Sep so she is waiting patiently for me to return (oh and the wife too . This is my 4th Harley and the biggest of the bunch I have ever ridden. I am so excited to get back and ride in England. Also just read about the Pope blessing 1400 bikes in St. Peters Square in Italy for Harleys 110th. Thinking about doing that ride first. Come on how cool would it be to say my bikes been blessed by the Pope plus it will be a GREAT ride about 18 hours going threw France. Well there i have introduced myself now to get to posting. Once i get back ill post up some pics but ive seen lots of BBP's on here.
