On May 15, 2010, we will be hosting the FIRST ANNUAL "LANDING OF THE VALKYRIES" !!! We ... are Honda of Greenville... in Greenville, TX. I have found several Valkyrie riders here in Greenville and surrounding areas and pulled them together for what is shaping up to be an awesome 1 day event. Our own Daniel Meyer has graciously consented to being on hand for book signings, and Jeff, The Wanderer, Latimer will be in attendance representing the "Ride for Kids", and I've spoke with B.A.D. and others to join us. With the 7 or so bikes here, and others from all over ... the schedule will go something like this .... starting at around 11:00 am.... Valks will gather at the WalMart on highway 34 in Greenville, and at High Noon ... will all cross the street and "Land" at Honda Yamaha of Greenville, located at 7716 Wesley St. (Highway 34). We want to fill the parking lot( Which isnt that hard, it's so small ), and all the yard around the place. There will be vendors on hand to demo cleaning products, and leathergoods. The local chapter of the GWRRA will also have a booth selling baked goodies. There will be free hot dogs and hamburgers and soft drinks with lots of people on hand to admire the best road bike ever built.... (so you gotta shine her up!!)
We will begin to wrap things up at 2:30 and get lined up to be escorted from Greenville, down highway 34 to Quinlan, Tx, take a cut acoss the lake and end up with a police escort at Highway 80 near Terrell, Tx to our final destination of Ham's Orchard for homemade Peach and Strawberry Ice Cream ! This date is also the opening day for Ham's Orchard and they are excited that we will be attending. For more information call me at the store 903-455-4866 or check the websight at greenvillehondayamaha.com (All bikes are welcomed for the ride to Ham's.. invite all your friends and impress them with the Valks !

I got all excited when I saw "Greenville"....but it
ain't Greeneville, TN!! Little too far for me. Hope
you have a big turnout.
"Evolution" is a dying religion being kept alive with tax dollars.

I'm in.  Would it be OK to bring along any of our non-Valkyrie buddies?  I have a friend in Greenville who has an Ultra Classic, but he's a good guy otherwise.

Yes Rainmaker bring all your friends. Our special guest to help us make the ride down to the Peach Orchard is Chief of Police Jody Lay from Terrell. He has an Ultra Classic, but I am told he is an ok guy otherwise as well!

T-Roy, you missed it with only 10 days  :cooldude:
Did you know that the national release date for the first Valkyries was May 25, 1996?
The question is not what you look at...but what you see...

T-Roy

Wow, I didn't know that, however it fits perfect! Anniversary of the greatest production bike ever!

Sadly I will not be back in my home state until late May early June.
And then only briefly.

Nothing else on the Texas ride calendar during that time frame.

If you are going to be in the DFW area, let us know when and we will plan something around your schedule.

And this is what makes Texas a great state.
Mucho gracias y'all.

The last week of May I am going to be meandering through New Mexico ( Clovis/Roswell) to pay respects and then toward the central Texas/Marble Falls area and maybe down toward San Antone. No set schedule, taking the back roads. The only time I have to really be anywhere is the first weekend in June in Marble Falls. Only to be tormented by my sister and her grandkids, oh boy - nuthin' like family and ankle biters.
I am trailering as I have to pick up more junq from my sister, I could either haul an empty trailer to Texas or put the scooter in so as to limit the amount of stuff she forces on me to take back home.  :coolsmiley: The only thought I had was to cruise around the hill country and the lakes as bikini season will be in full swing by then  :cooldude:, unless of course I got a better offer......

Exact dates are still a bit up in the air due to the people I work for being poster boys for preparation

Although....
I just snapped to the Tucumcari, NM Memorial Weekend BBQ & Ride.
Doh!
About the same time I plan on going through there.
hmmmm.
Gonna have to firm up vacation days now.

Super Santa

Yeah, don't miss the Tucumcari gathering.  Always a great time.  Look forward to seeing you there.  I bought my bike in Colorado Springs, so maybe you could give her a pat....
