Featured What you been doing with your TRIUMPH today??

Little run out down to Goodwood and back…!

 

Finally got round to playing with the suspension settings on my Thruxton R.
Went to pretty much comfort settings and took her for a thrash over the Lecht road to Granton on Spey.
Much improved ride and still able to get it right over through the bends.
Wish I had done it ages ago!

 

Great road, too!

 

Met up with the TOMCC Berks lads for a drink and a burger. Nice evening talking bikes, organs and Diesel oil.

 

After my tire change on the BONNIE yesterday (https://www.thetriumphforum.com/threads/new-tires-for-my-bonnie.35184/), I was able to enjoy the new driving experience today on the ride to the office! Even on cobblestones you notice the much better road holding and the higher ride comfort of the new tires.

 

I had a few hours out this morning as I have some time off work. Stopped for a coffee at an airfield where a chinook was paying a visit and managed to beat the rain . This time last year I was feeling nervous / excited about my CBT the next morning and now I'm riding about happily on my own bike!

 

@Mrs Visor: Great pictures!

 

I let the heli refuel and leave before I left myself, I've been in their downwash on a fair few occasions and attempting to ride slowly through it as it was right on the edge of the road would not have been smart .

 

Had a brilliant run yesterday down by Knockhill and Falkland on some fantastic roads with my mate no pics though, but this is a picture from Thursday especially for @Sprinter

 

Im a city slicker tonight,took the scenic route down from Aberdeenshire through Braemar Pitlochery Creif Callander. Top roads beautiful Scotland all around. Only stopped to fill the bike with fuel. Now it's my turn. I will enjoy that tractor pick tomorrow when I'm back home in t countryside. Cheers.

 

George Thorogood and the Destroyers one night only. Things is, no one except Dougie, has heard of em? Go figure.

 

Enjoy James,they don't know what they're missing!

 

Nevermind the price of petrol. I'm not going to tell you how much this was...

 

Stumbled on it myself. Looking for a local performance of Waiting for Godot.

 

Definitely gonna know this time .. got so prepared last time I passed out and my filthy mates ??? waited until the end to wake me (pricks thought it funny as hell) ... !!!! Son rang to say he's got all tickets for October, so ... not to forget the matchsticks !

 

Wow, great great gig.

Heading home.

 

Hope you dodge the showers

 

I enjoyed a 3-hour ride today in moderate summer temperatures (max.27 degrees Celsius). On small country roads I rode with my BONNIE through two provinces.
At the end I invited me to friends for a coffee, which I will enjoy soon.
After that, my BONNIE must hold out a few days in the garage, because I will be on the road with my Honda first across Austria and then to Bosnia and Herzegovina.

In the background is the castle of Forchtenstein

 

That looks beautiful @Markus - wishing you a safe and enjoyable journey on your Honda.

 

@Mrs Visor: Thank you! The next days will be very intensive and interesting. I will come up with a report and some photos until next week.
