Aloha All,
I was injured in combat in Iraq and ended up spending 13 months healing up in a hospital. I've been riding sport bikes since I was 16, but I can hardly bend my left knee anymore and had to get a bone graft in my wrist so sport bikes are out. Boy was I going through major bike riding withdrawals!!! I just got a 2008 H-D 105th Anniversary Dyna Wide Glide for Father's Day / My Birthday (thank you family). The W-G had 3" extended forward controls put on for me so that I can ride again now. I'm new to Harley's and to this forum, but I've already gotten massive help and informantion from you all so... THANK YOU!!!

Sorry you had to go through all the pain and suffering from serving our country. BIG thanks for what you've done by the way! And talk about a hell of a nice family buying you a bike! Treat them right and it all works out huh? Enjoy the Wide Glide, ride it all you can!
Thank you.
I'd like to put a picture up on a post but it always comes up as a thumbnail the same size as the one under my User Name. I know it can be done because I've seen it on here but I don't jknow how to do it. Can anyone help???

When you have the picture you want to post on the screen, right click it and use the option "copy image location" then go to your post and choose this button when clicked a little box pops up. Paste the location in and hit OK and wala, a full sized image. It may show as text until you hit preview post and then you'll know if it worked.

It is the duty of nations, as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon; and to recognize the sublime truth announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the LORD. ----Abraham Lincoln
