Hello From Vegas
Hi guys. I'm new in this forum, but I already like it.
I have been out of luck for riding a bike in the past 10 years, since I got married. I know, it happens...you get caught up in a family life, some priorities take over and after a while, you only remember that you had a motorcycle before, when somebody on the bike passes you on the freeway.
I'm an OTR truck driver and I see a lot of guys on the road. To make the long story short, I was coming down the hill in Frisco, CO, and me and my wife saw about 6 or 7 bikes coming down hard on those curves. Something clicked, like a it was yesterday, when I sold my FXST in 99. I looked at my wife's face and knew instantly that she was thinking about our pre marriage days, full of riding and going to places.
Thank God for the internet in a cab. Got on a cycle trader, made a few calls and in 3 days picked up a 2006 Road King Classic in Newport Beach, CA for a very reasonable price. So we are back!
I promise you not to write long *** stories here as this one, but this was from my heart
Nice to be around you guys, virtually and on the road.
Here is the bike.
