Whew! I'm glad those kids liked the Road Glide better than the Low Rider - S. I just picked up last week a 2020 RG Special #1 edition. Supposedly HD only made about 750 of that edition. My sister in-law lives on the big island and I wonder when I go visit if there's a HD rental there?

I did this ride 21 years ago. Me and a buddy rented HDs. It was an epic experience. It’s nice to see it done and watch the scenery. It’s one of those things you have to do if you ever get the opportunity that’s for sure. As always excellent job.
