I just bought a 99 Interstate. I live in East Texas so if anyone wants to do some riding let me know. I have ridden bikes since 1969. My most recent ride was a 98 Magna. I look forward to riding with some of you and learning about my Valk with you. Thanks for letting me join.

Welcome! I have had a Valk I/S for over 10 years. They are great bikes, and still command attention whenever they are out.
Give us a shout if you head thru Jacksboro!

I just noticed you are from Van. We actually went through Van on 110 last Saturday night (7/31) on a night ride to Tyler. Our buddy John is in Tyler.

I was home then, we had a wrench session at my house that day for another group I belong to MOOT. We had 8 bikes that we did odds and ends on, front seals, carb rebuilds, exhaust change, etc. Next time you head this direction let me know and i will hook up with you. Tell John to send me a message. Looking forward to meeting you and riding.
