Triumphrat

richb · 11-06-2006

Was down at Box Hill on Sunday afternoon, saw a Tang and Opal T100, a 2 year old Thruxton, but otherwise no Triumphs that I could see.

Quite a few Harleys, Sportsers and a Dynaglide I noticed, a Vmax with a monstrous rear tyre and some quite daft trikes with skulls, sheepskin seat, lots of fronds etc etc you get the picture..

No pics unfort, mobile dead.. but what a lovely day for a ride!

I go up there ocasionally, but usually mid morning to lunchtime. Gold & silver '78 tiger.

A long time since I was at Box Hill, I've lived in Leeds for 17 years but we've got Squires Cafe, Nothing like the scale of Box Hill but I did count at least a dozen Trumphs, of all types, there today. :wink:

Plenty of Triumphs down at Bury Hill on Sunday

Where's Bury Hill?

DaytonaDave · 11-15-2006

West Sussex the other side of Pulborough. Meeting point is the picnic area by the roundabout where the A29 meets the A284.

There is a little cafe and toilets. Well worth a run down.

Here is a URL to multimap hope it works :-

Watch out for the OAPs, couple of weeks back, one managed to reverse into a row of bikes & left 6 of them in bits . . .

Oh and the coppers who regularly do speed checks...

Not quite in bits, but rather a few bits fell off.
It was a terrible sound....the thunk as the old git reversed into the first one, then dunk, dunk, dunk as the rest did a grand imitation of dominoes!!
The driver was 86!
His excuse...."plenty of people were watching me reverse but no-one told me to stop before I hit the bikes"!!!!
And then he tried to do a runner!!!
Despite what seemed to be minimal damage, two of the bikes have been written off.

We'd just got back from a cracking ride and for whatever reason I decided to park elsewhere - glad I did now!!

I'd stopped off on my way home for a rally, and left shortly before it happened . . . a lucky escape for us both
