Default Hello from Iowa!

I've heard a lot of things about this fourum so I thought I'd logon and check it out for myself. So... A little bit about me. I ride a '03 fatboy but I also have a dual purpose dirtbike and an ATV. I have been riding motorcycles since I could walk from what I remember. Never been without one. As soon as I finish getting this bike paid for I plan on getting a bagger. More than likely a streetglide and keep the fatboy. During the day I work in an Information Systems department as a manager. I was in the Air Force for 7 years as a aircraft mechanic stationed in Altus OK. I couldn't wait to get out of that place! I am married with two of my own kids and also have 4 teenage kids that we are foster parents of. That about sums it up!
