touring on a Harley

I have been riding Harleys for 20 years and really enjoy it. I am not one of those so called bikers that haul their bike to an event and then unload it off the trailer to ride it 20 or 30 miles and then haul it back home. When I ride I only pack what I can safely haul on my Road King and just ride. I enjoy riding with my buddies but I also enjoy riding alone. Sometimes when I ride I really don't have a destination. It's hard to get lost if you are not going anywhere. Most of my rides are one or two day trips with a few friends on the weekend. Once or twice a year I take a week or two week ride and put thousands of miles on the old Harley. The point is, when I ride I go places, lots of places. I don't have a bike for show, I have a bike to ride. Riding is my main source of stress relief, so it's good for my blood pressure and my health in general. What does riding mean to you and what have you done for your bike lately.
