Newbie from Iowa
« on: February 24, 2007, 03:38:04 PM »

Wanted to say Hello and introduce myself. I just bought a 2007 SERK; razor red. It's still at the dealer since the weather is horrible here in Iowa right now. Hopefully in a couple of weeks I can ride her home ...

Last fall I sold my Cobalt 2006 Ultra to my neighbor (who wanted a companion for his blue FXR); and before that I owned a 2004 V-Rod.

I've been lurking on this board for a while and it seems like a great place to spend time and gain lots of knowledge.

Hey Mike; Welcome from south NJ. You are right the weather sucks right now here too. It's warm enough for short jaunts , temps peeking around 38. Good luck with your new bike and hang on, spring is just around the corner. Also you have great taste in bikes. :2vrolijk_21:

From one Newbie to another, welcome to the site from southern oregon. I lurk most of the time myself in this forum since I'm new to the CVO world that I'm among, but not part of.....yet. I don't say this in a bad way, just not comfy with the CVO stuff yet. I've a post whore at several other sites, ;) but give me a few more months to get some CVO experience then watch out.  ;D

Thanks everybody for the warm welcome ...

Skycuse2, here in Fort Dodge we got about 1/4 inch of ice followed by 9 or 10 inches of wet snow. Eastern Iowa got much worse and there are still many thousands without power; so I guess I won't complain. It'll warm up eventually - it's just hard to wait !!   ;D

Here's something to look forward to during the last gasps of winter.  Come to the Kansas City area the weekend of 13 April for the Rally for No Good Reason.  Check out this reasonless thread:
