    Hi everyone I have just recently joined the group as after a break of about 15 years I am getting back on a Triumph !
    My "new to me" ride is a 2009 Bonneville SE in Pacific Blue and white, It'll be my ride for whenever I return to UK to visit friends and family, I would prefer to ride a bike than drive a car any day of the week, even the huge cost of taking out temporary insurance outweighs the cost of renting a bike when I'm over.
    Looking forward to getting involved

    Hi Graham.....been a triumph owner since 2020 when I bought my new T100.

    Been thinking of visiting the Rock for a while....not sure how many days to plan for.....I know its small so would 3 days on the ground be enough.

    Saying that....if I stopped for say 7 to 10 days.....if we where to cross into Spain.....are there any easy to reach destination with if using bus or maybe train?

    Hi Graham,

    Love Gibraltar, went there, last minute for my birthday, the first time last November, liked it that much, I've already booked for next November :D

    Whereabouts will you be based when you come to the UK?

    @Graham Earl Welcome to the family. Do hit the upload a file button bottom right corner and show us all the new Triumph. Gibraltar is lovely. Last time i was there many many years ago i purchased a new Harley Jacket for pennies brought it home wore a few times and resold for twice what i had paid for it.
