New CVO FLSTSE owner from Annapolis Maryland
« on: January 27, 2010, 12:01:22 PM »

Hi

I'm a 61 year old sailor and sport fisherman from Annapolis who wondered into Annapolis Harley last November and fell in love with the 2010 CVO Convertable. It's been 35 years since I've owned a bike, and over time family and other issues always got in the way. But each spring, I'd wonder into the show room and "look" around. One thing that did usually stop me was the several month waiting list for the "Riders Edge" course, necessary both from a safety perspective, as well as a MVA requirements for a license upgrade.

As Frank Roberts, the salesman at Annapolis Harley, and I wondered around, trying on a variety of rides, we talked about the reasons I've been away for so long, and just when he steered me to the CVO Convertable, he mentioned that the Riders Edge program had an opening the following week. After I slid my ass on the CVO, I suddenly ran out of excuses. Left a deposit that night and gave them a check the following morning, after getting an enthusiastic blessing from my family the night before.

I've been on this site for several months getting a lot of good info on my bike, as well as riddding in general. Just never got around to introducing myself.

Managed between snow and cold to put about 200 miles on the bike so far, mostly short rides around town getting the feel of this baby. Love the bike and can't wait for warmer weather.

Anyway.., thanks for the opportunity to intro myself..

Ride Safe......

Welcome and congrats on the FLSTSE. I have the same bike in orange and I too knew I had to have it after my test ride. So far it's a great machine and I too am dying for some better weather to get out put some serious miles on it. Be sure to check out the FLSTSE forum as there is a lot of good information there.

Ride safe,

Mike V
