It is my official one year anniversary of owning this awesome motorcycle! What a great 18000 mile ride. It is the best motorcycle I have ever owned and it has lead me to some great friends here. I hope next year is even better!!

Wow! That's pretty cool that you know the exact date! I bought my first Valk in November after riding my brother's the previous summer. I was hooked. That's been about 6 years ago now. Took me a long time after that to find this board, which has been the best board I've ever joined. What's really cool is, had it not been for my love of the Valkyrie, my friend (more like a brother) Gary Wood (domino1) would not own one now. The love of riding put the two of us back together after many, many years apart. There was no reason, our lives just sort of diverged for awhile. The Valkyrie brought us back together (for the rest of our lives, I'm sure!). Then, another miracle happened! Gary was riding his Valk home from work one day when another Valk rider followed him home! That yahoo is one of the finest people I've ever met and a dear, dear friend! Raymond Hill (whooray) had just moved here from Colorado and saw Gary on his Valk. Gary told him about me and my love for the bike, and the rest is history! It's funny how a slight curve in your life can cause you to end up in such a different place! I really couldn't be more grateful for the turn of events that the love of one machine has caused!
Of course, I met John Lane and his amazing wife Gina because of this machine too. And I really can't wait to see where these two wheels will take me next, and the friends I'll meet and make because of them.
It really is true, "you meet the nicest people on a Honda".

Corn grats John. Just remember to keep the shiny side UP and the dirty side DOWN in your travels.
