I'm glad to see the VRCC is still here. I was a member back in '97 with my black '97. I just picked up a '98. I remember the days that Inzane was actually in Zanesville. I also went to the 1000 Valkyrie march and a bunch of other events like Daytona. When I was first here, Lamonster, Oz, Dragbars, F6gal (I see she's still here), Mosa, Barbarian, and many others were very active.
I switched to sport touring on a Yamaha FJR1300 in '03 and then onto a BMW K1600B. I'm happy to have found the '98 and am back in the Valkyrie world. (I still tour on the BMW).
Not sure if anyone remembers me, Bax, #1901.

You were here way before myself but here’s to welcoming you back! Edited: Should have asked before but simply slipped my mind. Will you be making it to InZane? Hope so! Rams.

I can’t say for sure if I knew what the internet was in 97! But I’m member # 5666 but I don’t remember where that puts me in the time line. But it seems the Valkyrie really gets a grip on some of us. Welcome back.

Howdy and welcome back! I was around during the first Inzanes, although I didn't physically attend until much later... Hope you can make it to Eureka Springs this year! Relaying your pic from FB to here:

The name doesn't ring a bell, but welcome back!!
FYI, the VRCC was technically established 08/01/1999. By the end of 1999, membership was approximately 2500. Member #1901 would have been registered in Oct or Nov 1999.

Member #5000 joined on 06/18/2000. So, member #5666 would have joined first week of July 2000.
