Hello all,
In probably one of the oddest moves I've ever made, I rode my '11 RGU to Texas for Shark Week V and while there traded for a '15 CVO RGU.
Hard to pass up a decent price on a beautiful bike with only 1100mi on it. Long story short, we started the 1250mi ride back home to Iowa the morning after buying.

Been riding Harley's since I was big enough to reach the ground. My dad was a long time Harely rider, and my best friend and nighbor's grandfather was the local Harley dealer back in the 70's. First ride on a "real" motorcycle was on a 250 Sprint complete with right side shift ad left side kickstarter.
Rode the wheels off an Aeromechi/Harley 90 for years as I was growing up.

Wife and I started our riding 15 years ago, started with a Sportster, '01 WideGlide, '01 Ultra Classic, '11 Road Glide Ultra and now the '15 RGU CVO.
We've road tripped from Iowa to Sturgis twice, Albuquerque NM, Saint George Utah, Maine, Texas, and headed to Canada for Shark Week next summer.
No, we don't trailer anywhere.

I make my living in industrial maintenance, nobody works on my bikes but me.
You'll find me on a variety of forums, but always under the "tdkkart" user name.

Thanks
Tom Krause

Congratulations on your new CVO RGU and welcome to the site from The Lowcountry of South Carolina!
I hope this may be of interest to you.
Attending a GTG is the best way to get to know the members and put a face to those screen names. Many a lasting friendship have come out of these GTG's,
So. if you want to meet people, ride some awesome roads, kick back and have fun, come to one or all of the GTG's. ( For the newbies out there, GTG = Get Together )
Make your plans now and avoid the rush. In other words, stop pondering and get a hankering and make reservations and attend.
See ya'll there.
The GTG's are in the event section of the board.
We would really like to have you join us in Maggie Valley in September, or New River Gorge in July,or both.
