Well the final stages of divorcing myself from the United Nations and enjoying a life on the open road with my Fox are nearly done. I sold my trusty 2008 Harley Davidson Heritage Softail and used the proceeds to upgrade to a 2013 HD Electra Glide Ultra Limited Classic. I wonder if Harley charges new buyers for each letter in the title of their bikes because this bike wasn't cheap and the name is a mouthful. Why not name it something simpler like RetroHog. After the fifth or sixth word in a bike's name I just want to say I bought a Harley and leave it at that when asked.
For the uninitiated I don't actually ride with a Fox but with my beautiful wife who has always carried the nickname ElectrkFox from various online screen names so over the years we've shortened it for my convenience to just "Fox". She sports red hair and is pretty to look at so the name sticks with her just fine.
This blog will mainly focus on my riding goals, contests, and trips throughout North America and hopefully overseas if the opportunity presents itself. My main goal right now is to get my bike set up for long distance riding, obtain my first certification for the Iron Butt Association, and compete and win the ABCs of Touring. More on all of these goals in future posts.
