Triumphrat

Went to Austin for a week on vacation to ride the hill country. Rain, rain, rain. To top it off, I had to rent a hog. What a piece of *****. And I've never encountered poorer service at a dealership in my life (perhaps I should have left the Triumph jacket at home.)

Managed to have fun anyway - plenty of beer and bbq. Next time I'll give Sweat a call in advance, I'm told he controls the weather there.

Yep. It's been raining now a couple of weeks. Sux bad. Not my fault, though, so I guess we can blame Sweat. :-D

I was at an HD dealer this weekend for their demos and the salesman asked me what I rode. I told him a Triumph and he said he was sorry. But then he smiled and said "We take trade-ins!"

Jeez.

Well, sorry your trip to Austin was like that. It really is a very nice place to live/visit/ride, etc.

Ahhh, I'm just venting a bit. It really was a good trip. I used to live in Austin, so my week there was more about seeing old friends, scarfing down "the cadillac" at the County Line, and getting in some face time at the Yellow Rose. Would have been nice to catch some better weather in Kerrville, but what's a vacation without a few bumps.

Plus, I got to watch the expression on my buddy's face as his Aggies lost by one point. That was worth the trip right there.

And my bonnie was waiting for me when I got home (to an 80 degree/sunny day in Milwaukee.)

BBQ, yellow rose, and Aggies losing...I love Austin!

Sorry about the weather, my bad.
