On Facebook (Pete Gibb - if any of you want to friend me (I post about my rides and stuff)) I belong to a "Valkyrie Riders" group. It isn't too active of a group or anything, but there was a very interesting post on there today. No idea if "Larry" is on here or ever heard of the VRCC... heck he might chime in, who knows.

Not practicing religion at this time (but respect those who do), so I didn't post this because of that, I really found this to be a very, very unique story:

"This is my new ride. and the more I read about these beautiful bikes the more I realize how God blessed me.

This is the Story:
Here is my new ride, it was given to me by a complete stranger ( I will leave his identity out of this for now). The testimony goes like this:

Thursday & Friday 8 wks ago, we took 13 kids from my sons Christian school / our church, to San Antonio for a field trip. Thursday I purchased a T shirt that reads " Jesus Beat the Devil" on the front " With a Big Ugly Stick" on the back. (... see Picture.) A man on friday Morning ( a complete stranger) came up to me and asked me about my shirt. We talked and exchanged stories about why we were in the Hotel while eating breakfast. The readers digest version is he told me God had told him a few days earlier that he was to give the motorcycle away and he was waiting for the right person to give it to. At first I laughed and couldn't believe what was happening. When I got up off the floor we went out to the bike and he showed me the title was already signed and it was turn key. My T shirt is what started the conversation ( Divine appointment). The cool thing about this whole thing is the blessing didn't just stop with me. 13 Kids and 3 other adults got to see a move of God when this man blessed me. I rode it home on a cloud Friday night. God is awesome and you can't tell me he doesn't move in ways we don't understand. I was fortunate to share this at a mens meeting and it was powerful. Everywhere I go on this bike it opens a door.
I am looking forward to meeting other "Val" owners and learn about this motorcycle. It seems to have quite the following.

I tried to shorten this so it was not a long read. I could fill pages with the things that happened while this man and I were sharing testimonies.

Psalms 37:4 says: "Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart."

**There is a pic posted of him on the Valk, but I didn't want to post someone else's pic on here.

Wow...

Well Pete, it's true.  He lives down here near Houston.  His sister is one of my families best friends.  We go camping with her and her husband 5-6 times a year.

It is a 97 red and white tourer....  my favorite color Valk...

I didn't know the story until he posted about it on the Texas board.  I have swapped a few emails with him and he is a very nice guy.  

Here is the link to the story on the TEXAS board....
