Congrats!

Just keep it off the sidewalks, ok? Some of us are still traveling on foot.

Nice bike; I own a ‘92 Softail, ‘03 Sportster and just ordered a new Springer. HD makes a great bike. I belong to a MC club in Seoul. We are doing a perimiter ride from Seoul, south, then east, then north then back to Seoul in May. You are welcome to join us on the trip from Busan to Soraksan. We should have between 15 to 20 riders. At Soraksan, we will spend the Memorial Day weekend drinking beer and eating fish.

Damn! Didn’t you just get a new SUV last fall?

May I suggest swapping for loud pipes? You know how asleep-at-the-wheel drivers in Seoul are, “what do you mean you look over your shoulder to change lanes? That’s why we have side mirrors!”

congratulations! My family and I are coming back to Korea this summer and this time I’m bringing my softail FXST. I’d be happy to do some riding.
