Default Hello From Florida

Just joined this forum, looks like a great place. Been riding more years than I can remember. Have had several Harleys, mostly AMF vintage. Got real tired of riding for a weekend and working on them for a week. Just bought a Covington built Bobber. Looking forward to many years of riding this one. I know I'll have to keep up on the nuts and bolts since it is a rigid but, I keep all of my bikes in the house so, that's not a problem. Any way, hope to meet some new friends, maybe a couple of you are local and we can do some riding.
