Hey Rich! Unfortunately we're going to be driving out to NY to visit my parents the weekend of the rally this year :/ My one "big ride" I've got planned will be in late July to ride out to the AMA Vintage Days at Mid Ohio then a loop south/west down to Kentucky to meet up with my family (which had scheduled a vacation over-top my planned trip). It's just a really tough period of time in my current stage of parenthood to sneak away to ride motorcycles it seems! We've got another on the way due at the end of October so that will likely really put the kibosh on my riding for a while lol
As to the Harley, man don't knock it til you try it. For local/shorter riding, I'd say it's perhaps the most fun, visceral, "elemental" machine I've owned, short of my DR650. Ever since I had tried out my '80 Low Rider (AMF era shovelhead) the "potato-potato" thing got imprinted in my brain it seems. The Evo sportster is all of the fun of that old shovelhead at 1/3 of the price (paid $2000 for the sportster this winter with just 11k miles and fresh tune up and tires on it versus $6k for the Low Rider that I had to do a full tune up and tires on).
