I might be able to swing this 1  this is usually the time we are starting the harvest with radishes, but typically we're doing 1/3 to 1/2 of our summer production. |

I just made reservations but was told group rate of $94 plus tax. It was suggested I call Matt Frank (same toll free number, 800.344.4656) in the morning to check on the rate.
Just wanted to advise what I encountered when I called for reservations. Will follow up after I call back.

Hi All Just booked a room for my son Jacob and myself for the Valkyrie PowWow. Sue is staying home to celebrate our grand daughter's first birthday. The young lady at the hotel was fine and I got the room for 4 nights at $90.00 each.
I will put up a "Who is Coming" page and a "T Shirt Ordering" page this week. Working out some art work with the silk screen company
and prices.

Followup: I called back and found out first person taking my reservation (Tom) must not have put me in the group reservation because when I spoke to a woman (who was expecting my call) she made the correction so I have the room at $90/night plus taxes.

Very tempted, would love to come to this but will need to find someone to help share the expense of the RV site. Will try if I can find a couple of folks. Getting the RV Toy hauler there is a bit more expensive than riding the Valkyrie so, getting there will depend on getting help with the RV site. That's the problem being born with good looks, personality and talent but no money.  One would think that once one retires he could do more. The problem is, you've got more time but, less $$$$$. It is, what it is.  So, no promises but, I'm trying. |

I was really looking forward to this event but have to cancel. I am the chapter director of a GWRRA group NY-K, and we just received great news. Our chapter was named the chapter of the year for the entire northeast region so we must attend a GWRRA event in State College, PA the same weekend as this one.

Henry, Based on Carl's latest comments in the INZANE Thread, I'd say there are still rooms available. InZane registration has slowed down lately. We're at 213. I was hoping to be 300 by now. I know we will get a bunch more with the home stretch rush but I'd like to see them sooner.
If you're planning to go but haven't signed up yet now would be a really good time. It's really nice riding country and there will be a lot of fun folks there.
I've heard the occasional comment that there's always next year. Next year is not guaranteed for any or all of us.
We'll plan on seeing some folks in Billings.

Sorry we won't make this ride. Debs niece is graduating and asked if we were attending personally. Since she is now leukemia free there is no way we couldn't not go. I hope all of you attending stay safe and have a fantastic weekend.

Sorry to see so many unable to come. I was at Inzane last year and was looking for a Valkyrie event on the East Coast, as I can't make Billings this year.
After seeing this, I decided what the heck and booked a room.
See you Friday!!!!

Wow,I would have liked to goto this ride...just can't make it....Bradford Pa. is the home of Zippo lighters, so I would have had double the fun, riding with good people and seeing the Zippo factory.
Maybe next year I can make it
