It would seem I've come full circle in my motorcycle company relationship. At the age of about 2yrs old in 1972 my dad took me for a ride on his Aermacchi Sprint 350 SS. Aermacchi, an Italian motorcycle was bought by H.D. so they would have a competitive bike against the Japanese bikes. Now at the age of 38, 36yrs later I ride H.D. owned Buell's. I never was attracted to Harley Davidson's but somehow they have found a way to influence my life. Weird.

Here is a picture of my now 90yr old grandma next to my dad's bike.
