Amy and I plan on meeting you in Lake Worth.  If you don't remember me, we were on the ride to Dublin a couple of months ago.

I started calling my Valkyrie Stealth Bike for several reasons:

a) A previous co-worker told me that when I rode into the parking lot at night he couldn't hear me coming, all he saw were an odd assortment of lights that resembled an aircraft.
b) There's no emblems on the bike so the uninformed don't know what kind of motorcycle it is.
c) Unlike the Hardley riders on the road, you can't hear me coming and I'm just a flash of chrome and black when I go by.

So anyway, the name seemed to fit.

See ya Sunday

I'm riding with a bunch of realtors on a ride soon and they asked me what I rode.  I told them a Valkyrie Interstate and they had no idea what it was.  Guess that's because they've never been able to read the emblems when I blew past their Harleys!

See you Sunday!
