New guy here!

Just got my first Valkyrie after waiting for many years. Great forum with great information. The only question I have is, as the web site is called Valkyrie Riders Cruiser Club is this different than a motorcycle club/chapter? How does one get together with other riders to ride?

And, here is a link to my bike, but if someone could also help me with posting a pic that would be cool too.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Welcome!
Very informal, internet based group of people loosely based on our love of the Valkyrie. Watch this board for rides & gatherings, you will be welcomed!
Where in Florida are you located?

bpt518 · Sun 29, Nov 2015, 20:24:57

Lake Mary, FL

Welcome to the club, there are a lot of rides all over Florida keep reading and you'll see them pop up. The holiday season might slow things down a bit but alot of us still ride. If your near Hardee's on 19 north of spring hill a lot of us get together on Wednesday night in the parking lot. They have a bike night there and close the parking lot off for bikers only. Where do you live.
Oh good luck on posting pics I'm still trying.

Welcome, we normally will post rides by Thursday, we typically ride every Saturday. Just join us on one of our rides, most usually stick around after they meet this Great Group of people we consider Family.

As far as pictures, open up a photobucket account and put all your pictures there. Then it is easy to link your pictures on most forums. Lake Mary is right in the middle of our group, so U will be able to hook up with others in your area and start riding with us.

Look forward to meeting ya

Everything sound great, thanks for quick responses.

_Sheffjs_ · Sun 29, Nov 2015, 21:24:20

You are near a few riders in your area. Maybe you can hook up with Jack or Larue for one of the Saturday rides as they come find us. By the way welcome.

larue · Sun 29, Nov 2015, 21:29:59

Welcome from Largo, nice ride you have!

Thunderbolt · Mon 30, Nov 2015, 05:17:43

Welcome. We are near Gainesville.

Bronxboy · Mon 30, Nov 2015, 07:05:13

The only initiation to the club is having to sit next to Billyboy on your first lunch ride

Our motto is "Live to Ride, Ride to Eat"

Flrider · Mon 30, Nov 2015, 07:28:26

Welcome from Kissimmee

Just keep tabs on the ride post here and feel free to jump in.

If we head over to the west coast, we sometimes meet at a Burger King on I-4 and 27 and take the back roads from there.
Or you can meet us at any other meeting point.

Look forward to meeting you in the near future.

btw you can add the city you live in on the bottom of the avatar.

reclaimerroger · Mon 30, Nov 2015, 08:39:24

Nice going Nick now we all know we won't see him more than once.
We need to keep new people away from Billyboy until they get used to the rest of us.

John Schmidt · Mon 30, Nov 2015, 08:44:56

I'm in Winter Park, Jeff Parker is up nearer Apopka, a couple others locally as well that I've not met but do post here periodically. Don't worry about Billy Boy, he's harmless....at least that's what we always tell the waitresses.

Tourus · Mon 30, Nov 2015, 09:54:57

welcome to the group. Great group of people with some really nice bikes, I'm fairly new to the group and have always felt welcome.

Ride Safe, Steve

_Sheffjs_ · Mon 30, Nov 2015, 10:14:03

I'm confused He has Lake Mary, FL on the OP under his bike and did from the first time I read the thread.

billyboy · Mon 30, Nov 2015, 16:05:32

Don't listen to these d**k heads they know not what they are talking about. I have had all my vaccines
so I am safe I think. Now if I could only remember her name. There was only one I think.

Right John? Anyway welcome to the sand box.

FloridaValkRyder · Mon 30, Nov 2015, 16:31:58

Welcome to the group. I'm Jeff Parker from the Apopka area. What was your name again? You will enjoy meeting up with everyone on a "Ride-to-Eat" event. There is also an incredible amount of knowledge and experience to be had from these folks. I'm not much of a "wrencher" myself and taking my bike over to Bill (Grumpy) in Tampa is my choice. Looking forward to meeting up with you soon.

Tourus · Mon 30, Nov 2015, 19:52:36

Why does billyboy call us duck heads, is that his way of saying were quacks?

John and Jeff, not far at all. Let me know when you want to ride. My dad has a Valkyrie too and lIves in Clermont. I'm a little concerned about Billyboy. I'm shooting for something on the 19th.
