Des Moines, IA


« on: March 20, 2013, 08:15:38 AM »

We have been up and running over here for a couple of weeks or more now.

What does ya think?

I got to admit, we don't have too much activity here, or the Yahoo Board for matter.

Trust me, ya no use it and you will never get used to it.

The one with the rides on it, I'll try to keep it on top without locking it.   Lock it and ya no can post on that message.

So if you would post a reponse here to seeing this, it would be deeply appreciated by me.   That way I can get a count of who is here and who isn't.

Anyone can get a count of the # of views off the Iowa home page, but it doesn't tell us who it is.

 I see Florida got a site also.

Yupper they did.   I also predict that several more states will get added on her.

Welcome aboard Bro.

Could we con you into organizing a ride out your way?

If so let me or RJC TTC  (Rob Carey, Iowa's State Rep).

I'll see if I can find his actual e-mail and PM it to you.

Again, WELCOME to our little sand box.

  Welcome Big Texas. Do you ride with any other valk riders from your area. Maybe we could set something up to  meet 1/2 way on a Saturday and eat somewhere. If interested email me at rtscarey@hotmail.com and maybe we can work out a Saturday together to meet somewhere.

Thanks.  I have not met any other Valkyrie riders yet as I recently switched from a Triumph.

I'll try to make it down for one of the meetings - especially when it warms up and I can take the bike instead of the truck. 

(A Sat. meet/greet would be good too... just didn't want you to double up on a meeting.)

Sorry HayHauler, I missed your question til just now.  Born and raised here.  The only time I've been to Texas was when I was just passing though to go to AZ. 

Why "bigtexas" some might ask.  Been playing Fantasy Football with a group of guys for about 10 years... my team's name is always Big Texases.

I'm going out in a litle bit and try to jump on MGM.     If I can't get it done, I'll take the Chevy for a run with out the sway bar we are building for it.

Right now the it sways all over God's Green earth without the sway bar.

We found one on a AMC Rebel that was about what we needed.   Now my son is building the ears for the axle, then we will have to find the little sway bar links.

Later.   2funny coolsmiley
