<p>Riding is/was my hobby. I still love riding and love everything about motorcycles. However, I left my bike in storage before PCSing to Japan due to some of the laws and regulations here. </p><p> </p><p>I often joke that I miss my bike more than some of my family back in the states. Or is it a joke? lol I've been riding since I got on my first dirt bike when I was about 7 or 8. I love everything about riding and the feeling of freedom I get while on a bike. </p><p> </p><p>I was the motorcycle mentor for a little over a year at my last unit and it was probably one of the best "additional" duties ever! lol I loved helping new riders learn how to ride and pick out the "perfect" bike for them. I was always available to talk to another rider or help wok on another riders bike. Whatever they needed. I always stressed the importance of PPE. I am big on PPE. I am glad the Army enforces the boots, long sleeves, gloves etc...I always used it before the Army and still do every time I ride. </p><p> </p><p>Here are a couple pictures of my bike. Anyone else feel like sharing their love for motorcycling? Or their thoughts on the PPE? I know PPE is a big debate for some people. </p>

I have a 2004 Honda VTX 1800. It is my fourth bike, all I have ever owned are Hondas and I think they may be the best cruisers out there.

I have a 2002 Harley Softail Heritage Classic EFI and have ridden over 74,000 miles. I have been in every state West of the Mississippi River, all the great Plains States, every state in the South, except for Louisiana and Miss. I haven't been to the New England States but intend to. Planning to go into the Heart of Texas this summer and over to Wyoming and Utah a 2nd time. Just love riding all I can during the Summer cuz in Michigan, you can't ride year round. My 1st bike was a 1966 Honda 160 that I got used in 1967. After I came home from Nam, I got another Honda, a 1970 BSA, then worked my way up to a 1978 Honda 550 4-cyl. which I kept until 1984 when I sold it after our Son was born. When I started getting interested in riding again after almost 18 years, I just knew I had to have a Harley. She is the 3rd love of my life. God is 1st and My Wife is 2nd.

My first bike was a yamaha 350. I turned it into a cafe racer back in 76. I have had several since then but I would really like to have another HD.
