Title: TENNESSEE STATE RIDE-IN. Post by: Crazyhorse on May 09, 2009, 11:59:03 AM May 30th at Fall Creek Falls State Park we will meet for our first State Ride-In (that I'm aware of). This first gathering will be simple and to the point: gather at the Lodge around 12:00 eastern time and have lunch. Spend time in the afternoon talking bikes, rides and whatever, then head back to the house. This is not just for Tennessee riders anyone is welcome. We would like to get feedback from those who think they can make it.

Cookeville has every brand name motel known to man and twice that many restaurants. Title: Re: TENNESSEE STATE RIDE-IN.

Gotta pay the bills somehow. One of these days I'm actually gonna show up at one of these shindigs and nobody's even gonna know who I am!! ;D Title: Re: TENNESSEE STATE RIDE-IN. Post by: Crazyhorse on May 10, 2009, 06:15:41 AM The Lodge is very nice, room's run about $79.00. If you are looking for something less expensive you might have to check out Joe's recommendation.

Someday when I'm rich and famous I'll foot the bill for a bunch of these ride-ins. :cooldude: Title: Re: TENNESSEE STATE RIDE-IN. Post by: Crazyhorse on May 14, 2009, 05:42:42 AM Little over two weeks and we will be meeting at Falls Creek Fall State Park for our first Tennessee Ride-In if you enjoy meeting other Valk riders come on down or up or over you get the message.
Mac Title: Re: TENNESSEE STATE RIDE-IN. Post by: JimL on May 15, 2009, 08:16:39 AM Come on you Tennessee Valkyrie Riders (and close surrounding areas)...where are you guys?! We have two weeks before our Fall Creek Falls ride-in and we would like to hear from a few more of you that hope to make it. Put the "honey-do's on hold", put down the remote control and record that episode of Oprah (your right....that was uncalled for...sorry)!
To borrow Smokin' Joe's slogan...."Bring it, lets ride". Title: surounding area valker Post by: Big IV on May 15, 2009, 09:16:11 AM I'll be in PA that month...but I wish you the best.

Post by: Dogg on May 25, 2009, 07:26:40 AM I have my own small repair/service shop for bikes here now. When I find that bit of land to move to, I want to expand and do alot more. my engine room is small now, I only have 2 lifts. maybe a nice little poll barn? lol Just want outa the rat race.
Of course, I could open a auto and light truck repair shop next door and keep the bikes as my relaxation hobby...:D Title: Re: TENNESSEE STATE RIDE-IN. Post by: VALK57 on May 25, 2009, 08:46:44 PM Anybody from the Indiana area going to the Tennessee State Ride-IN ? Would be interested in riding through with anybody going that way.
Title: Re: TENNESSEE STATE RIDE-IN. Post by: Duffy on May 26, 2009, 09:19:54 AM Hmmm.. Tennessee, that's just north of Georgia, right? ;D
OK, I was gone four days last weekend for Britmans ride and I haven't run it by the wife yet, but it sounds like fun to me. 8) Maybe I'll make it up to the Volunteer State for that. Hope so anyway. :cooldude: Let me see what the little women has to say about it. :-\ :coolsmiley: Title: Re: TENNESSEE STATE RIDE-IN. Post by: qc-teky on May 27, 2009, 07:37:48 AM Just made my reservation at the Inn for Friday and Saturday night. Gonna do a halfer from work Friday morning and leave at 10:00am. Thinking about heading out Hwy 64 from Memphis to avoid the slabs - anybody have any opinions or advice about that route? Is anybody else from west Tn. going? Looks like great weather all weekend - can't wait.
Title: Re: TENNESSEE STATE RIDE-IN. Post by: Duffy on May 27, 2009, 11:12:31 AM Turns out I can't make this ride or the annual Ride for Memphis (http://www.memphislynnlafferty.com/ride2009.pdf (http://www.memphislynnlafferty.com/ride2009.pdf)) this Saturday.
I will be at the Neighbor Day at Peachtree Dekalb Airport promoting 123college.com with my business associate, Curt. :cooldude: Y'all ride safe and enjoy! 8) Title: Re: TENNESSEE STATE RIDE-IN. Post by: Crazyhorse on May 29, 2009, 03:46:08 AM Sorry you can't make the ride Duffy, mabe you can make the Western Tennessee Ride-In sometime this fall. Hwy 64 is a great route looking forward to meeting you qc-teky.

Noticed the other day that it's empty and figure that it will be up for sale soon. VA isn't TN but I can tell you that a good, honest and reliable motorcycle mechanic is one thing that we DON'T have in this area. Title: Re: TENNESSEE STATE RIDE-IN. Post by: Dogg on May 29, 2009, 11:44:25 PM I've considered many places. I guess its up to the wife. I want to move to a remote place, she doesnt, she doesnt want to be TOO country...lol Its up to here tho. I just miss the mountains and want to get back to it. we'll see how it goes.
