Anyone from this forum going to Triumph Day at PIR? Revolt? Rodburner? Sprint_dude? Sprintstridinirat? All Triumphs get to ride 5 laps on the track. Did it last year and it was f**kin awesome. Will have the sidecar on the track this year with a video camera mounted, AND my GF riding monkey.

Geeezz...talk about living on the edge. "Monkey" is to traditional motorcycle riding, what crack is to Bud Light....
