    Hey Mark,
    I myself am from New York. I moved down to Soth Carolina three years ago. First of all, We will Never Forget 911, second of all, you and my wife share the same birthday. Many people say what a tragic day it was the year of 2001, however with my wife's birthday on 911 it was also a beautiful day as well for those born on September 11, so long as it was not in 2001. 911-2001 ment much to me, I lost some great friends that day, as well 343 brothers. As you can see, I have custom painted my motorcycle in tribute to 911. We Will Never Forget what happened September 11, 2001.
