Harley Down Under

G'day from the old antipodes (down under),

Just last weekend I road the old (rice) cruiser from Brisbane in Queensland to Sydney in New South Wales (that's 560 miles) to trade it in and pick up my new 06 Roadster. Then I rode the HD back to Brisbane again. Whew. Tired by smiling all the way.

What a difference going from a tidy, well-made Magna V4 with no character to the fulsome sweet sound and feel of the Roady. I been waiting 20 years to get to this moment. Sweet as.

I was missing out on something all these years, but now I know.

Glad that you enjoyed your new ride. Ride long and ride it safe. I am sitting here buried in a couple of feet of snow that we got dumped on us last night. Waiting for Friday so I can leave this country for 5 months down south.
