Default Hello!

I think I used to be on here years ago, but inactivity might have led to deletion.
I go by Maikeli7, but you can call me Mike if you want. Maikeli (My-K-Lee) is the name I got given to me when I was in Fiji for two years back in the mid '90s.

Been riding since 2006. My first bike was a 2003 Softail Standard in gunmetal pearl. A few months later, I traded up to a 2005 Road King Classic. Now I ride a 2014 Ultra (not the Limited).




I'm also a motovlogger (someone who rides and films it while talking). You can find me on Youtube: Maikeli7 --Papa Bear --Motovlogger since 2007.
