Just stumbled across the forum this mornin'...looks great.

a buddy suggested i should add a pic of my bikes...gonna try:

http://members.cox.net/carlosen/DSC01504.JPG

I guess I should add a little info, I bought my Deuce new back in '03, waited about 5 months for it...it was cold out anyway...it is a jewel. I just picked up my Road Glide last June...although I was the first of all my buddies to have a bike(back in '75)I was the last to have a bar bike and Dresser at the same time. Since we had driven every road near D.C. we started going for much longer rides...not good on a softail...had to go big. I was incredibly lucky to find this gem in K.C. with 1000 miles on it. Seems this guy bought it for his wife and in 5 years she only logged 250 miles...unreal...it's new. Flew out to take a look...I bought it through the guy who put the other 750 on it that second. I used to collect rare cars...so glad Harley put out the CVO line, nice to be special. If anyone in this forum is anywhere near D.C., let me know. seeya, Carlos

Welcome aboard Carlos! You stumble very well because you stumbled on the most comprehensive CVO site there is. You'll pick up a lot here. But you'll probably spend a lot too! Enjoy!

Hoist! 8-)

That's the size of the picture where you have it stored. I can put it back so it's just the hyperlink if you wish and members can click on that to see it.

You mentioned that you were trying to post the picture so I used the image tag so it would show here, unfortunately by using the hyperlink I can't resize the picture that way. If you want I can d/l the picture, resize it and attach it to your post. Let me know what you want done and I'll do it.

42 posts welcoming Carlos. I think that's a record of sorts for a guy. Does that make him only 8 shy of Jr status. Seems like he should get a jump cause he was cool and made us laugh right off.
