Yep, there certainly is! Check out the Triumph page (www.triumph.co.uk) for RAT info and contact info. They were at the Barber Vintage Festival, Birmingham, AL, in fair numbers on 10/19 thru 10/21.
Atlanta Triumph Ducati has a chapter that meets at the Prince of Wales pub in Atlanta once a month. North Georgia Triumph/Machines in Motion has one in Cumming (Northeast of Atlanta). Freewheeling is not truly a Triumph dealer (you can't have the sign and not have the bikes!). I'm not sure about Augusta.
Heck you can come riding with me, I am no respector of makes, you are on two that is all that matters. I can't speak for the RAT's as a group though. Welcome aboard
Newb to this forum. I currently ride an SV650. My first streetbike after a lifetime of dirt biking and dual sport riding. Thinking about getting a Triumph Street Triple. Where do the local Triumph folks hang out on the internet? Looks like the RatAtlantans site is no longer visited.
By the way, my Suzuki shop is Moto400 and they told me that the RAT pack for Georgia meets there:
There is no such thing as a "RAT pack for GA". Each individual dealer has its own RAT pack. The RATlantans should still be active. I am planning an event in the NC mountains with their leader Larry for May...
Do you have any details on it by chance? I sent them and email but haven't heard back. All it says on their website is Ride & Dinner and to meet at 6:30???
If the bike gods are with me, I hope to be picking up my new SE on Saturday (as they told me it could be in any day now), so maybe I'll see you guys there... :ClapHappy:
yea its a nice little hour drive for me coming from atl airport area but should be nice out..hoping my corbin gunfighter seat shows up for the cushy ride up...
It looks like they're meeting at Moto 400 at 6:30, and then heading up into Dahlonega for dinner at Caruso's on the Square... Not sure what the deal is after that, I'm waiting to hear back. I'm hoping to be able to make it.
I went to Moto400 yesterday. Here is what they told me regarding the Triumph RAT ride:
Saturday March 21
4 - 6 Free refreshments and socializing, and discounts on Triumph Merchandise
6:30 Leave for ride and ride for a little while on backroads
Dinner - Curuso's in Dahlonega
They also told me that a guy who works there - Andy, is now in charge of RAT of North Georgia. They maintain a RAT only database and communicate via email. Suggested all Triumph riders go to www.moto400.com and sign up for their newsletter. Check the RAT box on the sign up form.
I checked the Triumph site and the only one they showed other than Moto 400 was one in Augusta. When you hit the Georgia link, it just gives an error message.
update: I checked out the Ratlantans site again. They may have changed it or I just missed this last time, but it says they still are active, but their supporting dealer closed down. Thanks for pointing this out.
They have a 7:30pm meeting tnight at the highlander in midtown..they meet there first wed of each month...Ratlantans.com link at bottom to contact them..they have a ride planned soon..
I know a guy that was the mechanic at Machines in Motion and then Moto 400 that did all the Triumph work at both places. He now works out of his garage in Dahlonega. PM me and I will send your information to him.
