Hey! I think I said "Hello" to you at a rest stop last Saturday or Sunday somewhere maybe in the Carolinas. I was traveling with my family and told you I had a 97. Glad you made it back ok. Steve

Thanks for bringing that back, I always enjoyed following you on the board when I first got my Valk, was the your first Valkyrie?
