Thumbs Up Greetings from Illinois

Just wanted to say Hello. I am 62 years young and just started riding again after many years of raising children, working etc. Retiring June 1st and can't wait to get the wind in my face again. (And not from a fan blowing on me).

Ah, great to see another "over 60's" member - I am 61 years 3 months 29 days (as of today, not that I am counting) and impatiently waiting delivery of my new bike.

Welcome! Thanks for joining us.

A fan is not a reasonable facsimile of a motorcycle, speaking from experience.
