Are we, as a people, so attached to our machines, especially the Harley-Davidson, that we are drawn in from all directions as one appears on the horizon?
I have found the answer to be yes.

My sweet Freedom Glide opens EVERY conversation for me. Every one!
She is the magnet, the homing device, and the catalyst that brings me together with Americans from all walks of life who walk around her slowly, taking in every facet, and as each one slowly looks up, smiles, and says, "Nice Bike," I can see the respect in their eyes and hear it in the sound of their voice.
"That she is," I reply. "She is my trusty steed, my steel horse. She carries me throughout my daily travels, with a joy I can sense as I kick her into gear and ease out onto the road.
It is the motorcycle, the Harley-Davidson, that brings us together for the conversation.
It is the conversations with the people, that makes every day of the Freedom Ride, the awesome experience and the adventure it has become.
