I read with interest someone asking about what he would get for his $48.00 Inzane signup.
I look back over the years that i've been a member and realize that i haven't attended near as many Inzanes as I should've. Every event left me thinking that the riders are what it's about, not the monetary.
Besides the fellowship and the friendship of all who I have met, I can remember also what these friends do and have done. Every Inzane has contributed large amounts in donations, surpassing every other motorcycle group.
I can mention the hundreds of cases where members help other members.
A member, who was strapped for cash was donated a truck by our members so that he had another set of wheels for winter. The members established a relay to drive the truck to his home.
The VRCC adopted a stranger and gave him a scooter so that he could also get around.
Another member bought DDT's Valkyrie( DDT had traded it in when it quit) restored it with the help of members of the VRCC, and presented it back to DDT ready to run.
The Ultimate!! (and i'm not talking about the seat) .
Another member needed a kidney transplant and a member donated one of hers. Think about the implications of that Good Work!!!
So, if someone is concerned about "What do i get for my money?" and has a problem with understanding what the VRCC is all about, even with input from members, perhaps........... no i won't mention any suggestions.

Could not, would not add anything to what you said as it was the best answer so far.  |
