Hello to all,

This is a great and informative site.
At age 51 I got my first Harley. 1993 FLHTCU. I love it. Just like me it's big and not too fast.
My three kids - #1 son is almost 8 and twins at 6-1/2 all love to go for rides. My wife has been on once and for a lady who didn't want a bike I believe she's enjoying it.

I love the atmosphere here. All for one etc. etc.

I hope to be posting lots and learning as much as I can.

Ken - from Ontario Canada

Welcome from Calgary, great looking bike, thanks for sharing. Envoy your ride for what's left of the season, and enjoy your family for the rest of your days.

Welcome from Michigan Ken,

At age 59 & 10 months I bought my first Harley, so at 51 you are just a "kid". Hope you and the wife enjoy the ride as much as my wife and I are.

Ride safe!
