 went for a Friday night ride after work and at the light in Hastings a Valk trike rolled up behind me, we acknowledged each other and he followed me down the road, I pulled over about ten miles later and met this fella 84 yrs old on a 97 red/white with 120 k on it. He was once a Harley guy but after he put 200k on his 1200 size Goldwing back in the day he has been on a Honda ever since. His name is Wobb lives in Port Orange. does not use a computer but took my cell number as he says he makes that same loop often. he also asked if I knew where he could find a stock exhaust, hey Bert he has your number too.  he is from Massachusetts originally, we talked about a half hour and rode another ten miles together and split up. Next time I will get him in the shot, was good to meet him. The Valk makes friends wherever she goes.

Nice to meet a fellow Valker isn't it. We are losing so many lately, it's nice to meet some new ones!

 That Looks Like The Trike That Guy Was Riding On Sunday, When I Helped Fix The Flat On The Goldwing !
Just Because I Bought An F6b, Does Not Mean That I Have Gone Anywhere, LOL ! 2funny

I sure hope you don't Bert..I still love you even without the Valkyrie!! I'm pretty sure I would be taking a test spin on one myself. My riding days are quickly coming to a close I'm afraid, so the ol' G/S Interstate will just have to do, and I couldn't be happier with her!  cooldude

Hey Mike

You ONLY made him chase you for 10 miles before you pulled over???  Grin

Guy got lucky cause if he would have been riding anything else, he would still be chasing you  Grin

Really, Nice going Mike  cooldude

You're right Jack, good thing he had a Valk to keep up, I did go for a while but was looking for a good place to stop, Dollar General was it, he said he was hoping I was going to stop for a visit.
Bert, the other trike was a voyager kit but it was a 97 and it had over 150k on it. But that is what I thought too when I looked in my rear view mirror.   
It is amazing how many other Valk lovers are out there that we don't even know about. Or they don't know about us. (VRCC)
