Howdy, Ya'll! FNG = Flippin New Guy, here.

Got back into riding after a 30 year hiatus. Got a 105th Sporty last year to use for training wheels, and traded that in for a 100th Heritage in December. Did the cam tensioner thing recently, so she's all squared away and good to go.

I had a 1977-78 Super Glide in my younger days. Crashed, but survived. Got hitched, had kids. Wifey said no bike until kids are raised. Well, that time has occurred, and here I am. Bucket List time.

Looking forward to meeting and greeting good folks here.

Cheers!

Welcome from Missouri. It seems like a ditto story line from a lot of us. Got away from riding. Bought property, raised kids, sports, band etc... Back on a bike. Ah the life circles.
