Spotted:Orange & White Bonnie
Headed north on Country Club,in Mesa,about 3:30 pm today,14 November.I think you had a flyscreen,or some kind of windshield,but I was headed the other way,and just caught a glimpse.
If that is someone here,please speak up! Us Triumph Twin riders are rare here in AZ.

Cheers!

Was this the Orange and White paint job? Actually it's striped orange, not spotted orange.
If it was, then I'll compliment the owner on his good taste, but it wasn't me -- I was still in St Louis!
Good luck on hooking up!

OK,Mr Harveys(hereafter known as drWiseacre),technically those are orange panels on your bike
(and a very pretty bike it is,too!),not stripes.But yes,that is the paint scheme on the bike in question.
And I agree,good taste,indeed!

mkirby-I haven't seen you around town yet,but I probably will.I live in Mesa too.
If I see you I'll try to chase you down and introduce myself. Besides the orange/white,
there is also a yellow Thruxton running around town that I haven't been able to contact either.
Please let me know if you are interested in going for a ride.
Maybe we can get Boriqua and Jfenton(or anyone else,for that matter)
to go with us.

Cheers!

Orange???
What orange? The colours are Tangerine and Opal. I know this, as I tried to find said colors for painting side panels and flyscreen.
It wasn't me in AZ , either, as I was also in St. Louis., home of the Killer Rams football team. Ha!

I'm sorry, but Grid Iron's always confused me. Does this mean your team are sheep killers? How does that help their game plan?
Aussie Rules! OK?

The Rams are our local NFL American football team. This year they really, uh to put it kindly, stink. They had a perfect record until the game last Sunday, but they won so the record is no longer perfect, though it is perfectly awful!
Still, they do serve a good purpose -- all those folks at the games are not on the roads. Less crowds on my Sunday rides!

We'd be happy to give you the Cardinals back.(Really)
Scratch,do you Down Under blokes name your sports teams after their corporate sponsors,like the Euros do? Such as "The Victoria's Secret Ladies Undies Footballers" or such like?

"Does this mean your team are sheep killers? How does that help their game plan?"
No, these Rams are really tough-Tougher than I thought a week ago, 'cause back then the only thing I thought they might actually kill is a Dolphin-and that doesn't sound very nice. The only help for the game plan is to play better, and I don't think that's likely.
" We'd be happy to give you the Cardinals back.(Really)"
Thanks, but no thanks. It's amazing that so many cities will knuckle under to Bill Bidwell. Sorry that Arizona got stuck with them, but we got 'em from Chicago & just passed along the pain. Now we are back in the same spot. Fortunately, St. Louis is much more of a baseball town than a football town. Most of us have just lost interest. Warner may not be the greatest Q-back in the league, but he is a standup guy in the community.
Cheers
