Johnny's Motel in Grand Forks BC has all rooms blocked off for our 2021 Valhalla Rally September 9 - 12 in Grand Forks BC. You can now call and book your room @ 250-442-8242.  Book under "Valhalla Rally - Valkyrie Riders". Rates are not set yet, but will be similar to past years and should be posted up here later this week, or you can ask when booking. Good deal for us Canadians...Better deal for our American friends with their fancy US $.  Wink

7291 Hwy 3 E.
Grand Forks B.C.
Box 876, V0H 1H0

There are 25 rooms of varying configurations, you can check them out @ http://www.johnnysmotel.ca/

We will be checking with Johnny's over the next couple of months to see how many reservations have been made, and if an overflow option may be required. There are a couple of similar motels in the immediate area if this is the case, and we will post them up at a later date.

For those that haven't been, Johnny's is a nice clean motel with a large parking lot off the highway and all rooms back on to the Granby River. There's a nice grass area with picnic tables in the back, where we can have a BBQ, etc. The motel is at the East end of town, off the main Highway #3. The town of Grand Forks is a nice small town with lots of places to eat, grab a refreshment, whatever...and is a staging point for some of the finest riding BC has to offer.

Schedule of Events will be as follows:
THURSDAY... arrive late afternoonn or evening. Meet & Greet in parking lot
               ... ride into town for supper and/or to pick up a few groceries and other "necessities"  Grin

FRIDAY... grab breakfast and ride.
          ... arrive back at hotel in time for Supper
          ... Show & Shine Bike Show
          ... Firepit, Fireball, initiation of new attendees, lots of BS & fun

SATURDAY... grab breakfast and ride
               ... arrive back at hotel in time for Supper. If the BBQ's are available, we will pick up fixin's
               ... Firepit, Fireball, awards, lots of BS & fun, traditional gift exchange. Bring a gift ($15 max) to participate
                  * *Hawaiian Shirts are all the rage for Saturday Night!!**

SUNDAY ... grab breakfast & head for home

NOTES: It appears as if there's a decent likehood that the border will be open for "non-essential" travel (that would include old (or young) guys & gals riding Valkyries, F6B's, Wings, etc.) by the end of August or earlier. If it is, there may be a requirement  that proof of Co*** vaccination will be required to cross, so that should be checked. For our American friends, there will be plenty of time to cancel your reservation if for whatever reason the "powers that be" decide to prolong the closure...hopefully that won't be the case and we can all have a grand old time in Grand Forks

I am really sorry, but I will not be able to attend. I was most definitely planning on doing so, but a family reunion is happening over that very weekend and I really can't miss it. I am truly bummed. :-(

I think the border will be open by August, but restricted to fully vaccinated travelers... both Canadians and Americans going either way.

Considering it but new job may interfere...

Found this information tho: Might be useful as you have to pass a C test and have all your information uploaded to ArriveCan before you attempt to cross.

Had to cancel this trip, we were double booked, can’t figure how to be in two places at the same time.
