Sergeant at Arms

Robert Gateley
 
 
          Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. January of 1959. Moved around with my parents to Michigan, Massachusetts (just outside of Boston), then back to Pennsylvania. It was there that I survived my teen years doing the dirt bike thing on some trails around our neighborhood.
 
          Joined the Army in 1976 as a field medic and stayed in until 1985. I had the pleasure of serving briefly in New Jersey and Texas. Then on to Colorado. Followed by a tour in South Korea. Stateside again in Louisiana. Back to South Korea again and finally, ended up in Kansas just before leaving the service. (Would have stayed as a career; but had to leave due to family issues).
 
          I was able to get a couple more years of ride time in while in Louisiana, but a return to Korea ended that run.
 
          Moved to Florida around 1987. Did some construction work. Got licensed as a Plumber and now currently work for Pasco County Building Department. 
 
          I've been married twice. Currently NOT. So, was able to buy my first Harley about 18 months ago. A Sportster 1200C. A fun little bike that I've been able to put some 10,000 miles on so far. To be honest though, I'm looking forward to moving up to something with a little more comfort sometime in the near future. I love the ride and can't believe I let that much time pass before getting back on a bike. Won't let that happen again!
