Default Hello all & greetings from SoCal! Ready to Ride!
Hey all!

36 year old Philly boy living in Los Angeles and just bought my first bike! Rode my friends' bikes many years ago and never took it up on my own but wish I had. Taking the Rider's Edge course in a week or so and ready to get up on 2 Excited to do some coastal runs up and down the beautiful California coast ... who's down?!

About the bike: I knew I wanted a Street Bob after I went to the local Harley dealer and sat on just about every one in the showroom. Besides being a sexy b*tch, the Bob just felt right on me being 6'2" 210lbs. Kept my eye on Craig's List for a couple months and finally found the 1st bike of my dreams (see below)!

Cheers!!
