Featured What you been doing with your TRIUMPH today??

Where do you stick the ticket. Barkin’ mad that is, just barkin’ mad

 

Hurray, @darkman! Someone who has as many helmets as I do. Now I don't feel so bad. But since trading two of my bikes recently for one new one (with different paint, of course) I may be looking to pass a few of them along. Of course if I do that it opens up spaces for other new ones. Stuff in, stuff out....

 

Great poem and awesome photo, Hobnail! And these two lines ---
"Sodden drivers on cell.
Oblivious to creation."
----certainly nails what the roads are like these days. Well, not so "sodden" in Arizona but certainly there are a lot of drivers on cell oblivious to creation.

 

It's worth checking out, SleepyOwl. It's a stunning photo. And amazing that you took it with an iPhone and just a bit of touchup. I say go for those royalties. At the very least make a poster and put it in your garage--or living room!

 

Been on Attack 3s for two years now. Blue the Street Triple wears them. Good in wet and dry. Turn in is crisp and never felt unsure. Starting to flatten out a bit in the middle now. I would have to calculate miles. I wanted to use same on the Bonnie, but not right sizes. I drive aggressively, when I can and I have a curve to actually drive fast on, which in Iowa is a bit few and far between. I would buy again, and probably will. RS has Avon Storm3 and it just doesn't feel as stable as the Conti.

 

Nice one mate, sometimes it’s just better to buy a new part if you can.
Hopefully it’ll give you more confidence in the reliability of your bike.

 

Woke early so out by 07:30 for a nice blast to Melton and then market Harborough.

Would have grabbed a cuppa as me favourite café is open for 'take aways', which you can drink on the benches outside, but it wasn't open yet.

Wanna get as many miles in as poss before the Dayt's first trackday on Tue.

Bike felt great - but can feel me age in me old knees ;-)

It is a lovely road.

Nottingham to Rutland and Uppingham, then across to Market Harborough is a lovely 100 mile loop.

Plan to do that on Monday

And yep, much less traffic in Leicestershire - even less in Lincolnshire!

Up and out at 6am, Little bimble out this morning to Brighton, popped along the coast to Worthing Box Hill and home curvey Calimoto route160 miles, 3:30 minutes, 54mpg, av speed 52 mph.

 

Flipped stones and cars, a car has only threw up a stone and it's chipped the tank on Norbert

Literally fumming and to angry to talk I think I have the skill to sort it, if not I'll get the whole bike painted during winter feck it.

 

I feel for you Pete, I had a stone flip up off a car and smash the headlight on my R9T.
£190 for a new one

 

Felt it hit my leg and just knew it would of done something...... Just a feeling I had

That's shit about ya bike mate, makes ya want to not ride them the price they are to fix.

 

That’s a bugger mate
Tell Norbert we’re thinking of him

 

We are talking bike parts here aren't we

 

Bad luck mate, it really hurts when you pride and joy gets damaged....

 

We are talking bike parts here aren't we ?

 

Maybe, maybe not. You will have to decide

 

Don’t give up yet mate, go and have a cuppa, check out the battery how did it go flat?

 

I finally made my ride up to the Blue Ridge Parkway in the Asheville North Carolina area on my Scrambler 1200XE. Perfect weather and no traffic, what a great day.

 

Lovely view that Rebelhawk.
