I work shift so I have a LOT of days off during the week. Ive had my bike since March 30th 2007 and have 10000+ miles on it already. Been riding a lot. I ride back roads, to the Blue Ridge Parkway several times. Its only about 3 hours away from home. Theres 4 of us on shift that have hawgs and we ride regularly on days off. Im lucky to have a great group of buddies that ride. Always someone up for a trip somewhere.
