I walked past my Valkyrie in the garage as I was leaving for work today.
There, I hope you are happy. No politics, no request for prayers that have nothing to do with riding or a riding accident, nothing about my kids or my dog. No pic of a hot woman. Just a post of what I did with my Valkyrie today. Nothing for anyone to even respond to.
Wow! Exciting, hunh?

I walked past my Valkyrie in the garage as I was leaving for work today. . . .
 On the way to work today I walked out of the house and gave the dog a quick scratch on her head and neck. I also walked by my Valkyrie today in the garage. I paused, and made two quick wipes across the tank with the microfiber to wipe off some imagined dust. Off work tomorrow after a tough stretch and will renew our friendship.

I avoided my cage yet again. I have a string back to June 1st. I did drive it to camp once with my 4 year old I guess. and I did drive it to the dealership once for warranty work, and once to the gas station to put gas in it for my Mother-In-Law. But that's it. I have been all Honda, ALL the time other than that... Well, and the times I drove my wife's cage...  Jabba

I'm sorry, but I was all excited about reading your simple post concerning your Valkyrie and then you had to drag work into it! Just for once can't you leave well enough alone? There must be hundreds of forums out there in which you can freely discuss the means of supporting your existence. I suppose it just never crossed your mind that some might be offended? Some don't work by choice; some are involuntarily without employment. Some are retired while some are just tired. Some are happy in their own vocation and don't need you making them feel like second class laborers. Some despise their daily grind and you've just rubbed your own particular brand of salt in it for them.
I just hope you're proud of yourself, Mr. New York Yankee! Next time, try to remember that this isn't just another work board. That is funny on many levels.

I was tired yesterday, I'm tired again today. Guess I'm re-tired? Don't work either, haven't for nearly eight years, longer according to my old boss.  I did clean the remaining Love Bugs off the bike from my 200 mile lunch ride last Saturday. Also cleaned the windshield, was debating about riding it to the gym but don't like riding in just shorts, t-shirt, and tennies(actuall eleven and a halfies). Guess I'll ride the bicycle down there, only about 4.7 miles one way. There, it's both Valk and bike related. Before I leave I'll scratch my wife behind her ears and kiss the neighbor's dog. Think I'm right on that.....

That is funny on many levels. Thanks. May I call you for reference when my lovely wife gives me that condescending look and exclaims, "You're not funny, you know?" I understand  In the future, I will try and be more understanding and think before I type. Thanks, man! I appreciate your efforts, Gary. I love ya, man! (In a motorcycle riding man sort of way, of course.) that one actually made me laff out loud,,,, Stand by for a summons. I get that look and declaration more than you can possibly imagine. When I left for work today, George Bush was outside praying for O'bama who had wrecked his motorcycle when my dog (who got away from my kids) ran out in front of him. Nicely done, Mike. I'd consider you truly clever if your mirrors weren't crooked.

So I walked out of the house and up the hill to where I keep my Valk under a shed. I still haven't built my shed yet. Then I rode to work. It may not be the best part of my day, but it is the best part of waking up is a Valk under butt. Or maybe that was folgers. I can't remember.

I have seen your bike lately and it is hideously dirty (WARNING OSS PICS ARE BACK !!!) I mean in a Daniel Mayer/ Valker sort of way So being the kind of friend I am you can borrow my secretary as she finished cleaning the Valk on Monday and then the beemer yesterday and she has nothing to do but parade around in her bikini all day and painting her nails Just bring her back before Hay shows up as I need the bikes clean for our ride There are 7 male clients just sitting in the waiting room waiting to see me they have no money they just want to come in and go back out so they can see her. Actually one of them is in fact a woman says she heard I may have an opening for secretary. She better be able to get the water spots off the Valkyrie  Oss (apparently no longer running for president- and I never even got a chance to accept the nomination)

After working the midnight shift last night, I came home this morning and walked up to the Valk in the garage and scratched it behind the tires and gave it a pat on top of the tank and said "come on girl, let's go for a ride". While out riding this morning I prayed that all of those people going to work this morning wouldln't run into me while I was thinking of posting pics of hot girls on the VRCC. So here's a pic of three girls instead.......

[tongueincheek] I walked past my Valkyrie in the garage as I was leaving for work today. I walked up to my Valkyrie in the shop last night, threw my leg over her, opened the door, and drove her to work today. I rode to work and then back home this morning.
This afternoon I will do it again.
Total mileage for both round trips. About 8 miles.  I rode her to work last night, and then back home this morning. Tonight I will do it again. Total mileage for both round trips. About 100 miles  I'd ride the Valkyrie today but we have liquid falling out of the sky. I'm riding the Valkyrie tonight, even though we are supposed to have liquid falling out of the sky.  Wow! Exciting, hunh?
Exciting, but only if you're riding... Woman in bikini, cleaning bike? Meh - fluff. Woman in gear, RIDING bike...mmmmm, sexxxyyyyy!!  [/tongueincheek] R

There must be hundreds of forums out there in which you can freely discuss the means of supporting your existence. I suppose it just never crossed your mind that some might be offended?

Some are happy in their own vocation and don't need you making them feel like second class laborers. Some despise their daily grind and you've just rubbed your own particular brand of salt in it for them.

I am also on a diet and some posters insist on mentioning LUNCH! and Riding XXX miles for breakfast  . Some people post crap about new chrome, knowing full well, that not all of us can not afford such niceties ! AND DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED on the ride reports! As if every one lives in a beautifull state with 800 sweet curves with in 15 miles of home and those who have time and money to visit other states are just outright BRAGGING ABOUT IT !! ! Where is the humanity?  I Forgot the sarcasm font again....But so did Carl !

Like every morning since April 18th, I went out, patted my Bonneville on the hood and rode my Valk to work. Work involves driving a 60' articulated transit bus around town. Fun is pointing an eight foot Honda where ever she wants to go. On weekends we take directionless rides around town or in the country.
The Bonny has been started maybe 4 times this summer.
My Bonny sits out in the driveway, my Bonny just stays here at home. My Bonny just waits for the winter, I'll drive her when some snow has flown! Fred.
