WOW....so many Newbs....!
I used to try to greet all the newbies....but there have been so many over the last few months I just haven't kept up with them all. So I would just like to take a second to welcome all of you newer members to the VBA. This is a great group....many of whom have been here from the beginning (when it was known as KowaNOW). This is a great place for information on your Vulcans and an even better place to make new friends, be it locally or across state lines.
This forum is very unique in that it was designed to be like friends sitting around a table over a few brews. In the beginning, there were only a few members, so it really was like that for some time. Now, this organization has grown immensely. I can assure you that you will get out of this forum exactly what you put into it. If you spend some time here, attend the rallies (while buying the VIP's a round or two....just kidding....kinda...), you will make many friends you never knew you had. While some of the longtime members may have moved to other brands, we stay here because of the great friendships we have cultivated over many years and the enjoyment we get from tossing a little gas on each other's fires. Anyways, welcome and enjoy...and if you see me at a rally....I prefer tequila instead of beer...especially if its yours....!

Thank you all for the warm welcome to us newbies. I've been riding for about 25 yrs. but I'm a newbie to the Vulcan World. I'm glad I joined.

You forgot the sub-article in that section. New members must buy beverages for all members lower than #659 who are still in possession of their Nomad.

Definitely a much more active forum than it used to be. I just got back on the forum here after being away for 2 weeks vacation with no internet access. 11 pages of New Posts! At one time you could have been away for 2 weeks and you'd be lucky if there were 2 pages of new posts.
Very nice to see more interest.
