Hi all!
I am going to bike night on Main in Mesa on the 6th of May. I'll be with co-worker Joe on his Street Glide but I sure would like to be gregarious with other Valkyrie owners.
We'll be there early, around 6:30. More info on this soon.
Phil.

Nice ride, RDKLL. I sure will recognize your Valky. Also I'm sure Desert Brewing company is a great place to hang out, so we should meet there.
WOXOF, see you guys there!

5:30 PM, that's 55 miles right through rush hour Phoenix for me. I'll see if it's doable when Friday afternoon rolls around.

Yeah, 5:30 is going to be rough for us. Cheryl has a 40 mile commute from her office on the 101 which is pretty much bumper to bumper gridlock at that time. We are looking at 6:30 or so.

Ya know Tim, when I retired from rush hour commuting in NY I swore that I would never get stuck doing it again.... Now here I am contemplating it for pleasure...... At least back there you could take side streets if it was really bad.. Out here there are Mountains in the way....

Sorry I wasn't able to find you guys in the crowd. I went around asking some of the people if they owned the green Valk out in front, but, no one would admit to it. Cheryl and I wore our USAF vests again. I should have gotten a USAF vest sooner. Quite a few people came us to us and asked about my military service. One gal was a USAF vet herself - a former F-15 electrician. I did make new friends and now have a new BFF - Monty Python:  I think the circus just might be in town....

So anyone knows the woman who thanked me for my service? I had to remove my helmet to hear her. It wasn't Cheryl, was it?
