Excellent. Someone nearby. We should make an effort to get some Triumph riders together for some riding. I hit the ABCs of Wisconsin fairly often, and that may be a good place to go.

Already happening with me...I just bought an 07 Speedmaster this year, as a first bike. (Hi...I lurk alot.)

I'm already talking with my folks about getting them onto a Triumph.

I am going to do my best to make this, though there is possibility I will not be able too. How pathetic, I even live in Red Wing. Anyway, my Triumph tossed its chain a couple of weeks ago and parts are in route., and the guy with the riviting tool may only have time to work on the bike with me on Saturday AM. I may have it up and going, but if not, don't kick me out if I arrive on my Kawi instead. England will still be in my heart.
