The VRCC will again provide a wall calendar, but this time for the year 2012. If you have a particularly good picture of your Valkyrie please send it to us at VRCCstaff@gmail.com. By submitting the picture to the VRCC staff for consideration for the VRCC calendar you are attesting:
1) That you are the owner of the printing rights to the photo
and 2) that you release those rights to the VRCC for inclusion in the VRCC 2012 calendar or any other published form by the VRCC.
Pictures should be digital images of relatively high resolution (original camera size for most digital cameras is acceptable). Please include your handle or name and a very short description, such as location, of the picture.
We prefer pictures that:
Prominently display a Valkyrie
Do not include people
Seasonal scenes are a plus
Have an uncluttered aethestically pleasing background
and
Have not been previously used in a VRCC wall calendar.
So, get busy. Show me what we've got.

I assume since it's for a 2012 calendar the time frame is rather short. Correct?

Need a tip on a place to stay?
Oops... wrong town... I meant to say Gatlinburg, TN.  Wife and I have a cabin in the mountains. Her brother referred us to the place. But thank you anyway! |

Thanks, guys, for the energetic responses.Lucky 13 and a perfect specimen. 2000 Model Interstate.
Foothills Parkway, Spring, Smoky Blue Ridges of Pristine Unspoiled Wilderness. Send it, Al, but the one you posted is way too small.I assume since it's for a 2012 calendar the time frame is rather short. Correct? Absolutely correct. I'll collect for a couple of weeks and then we'll select and build.
Don't post them here, fellas. Email them to me.

I can't tell if this one is too blurry or not... I'll look for the original, it has all the bits  ,when I get home... me and Steamer at the East Cavalry Field (almost nobody goes there) at Gettysburg...  If this one turns out to be too blurry, it seems like someone should have a good Valkyrie picture from Gettysburg... -Mike |

Was going to ride over to the lighthouse in New Smyrna(south of Daytona) and take a couple shots. If it doesn't happen, no biggie. Maybe this weekend if I can leave the house earlier than usual. Just wondering...Mikey K, is that a TV antenna or a lightning arrestor sticking up in back. Oh, I got it, it's a GPS antenna.  (inside joke, folks) |
