I just want to wish all the America & Speedmaster owners a great Christmas & a wonderful Holiday Season.
For those of us who are able to ride, hopefully you have a few days off during the Holiday Season to enjoy a few twists of the throttle.
For anyone buried in the snow & cold; fret not good friend, spring will arrive soon, so keep you spirits up by doing a little wrenching on your baby.
Happy Holidays,
Kurt Darden

thanks dardoonk, also to you and your family may you have a very happy Christmas and a great 07. Here in Canberra Australia, the weather is absolutely beautiful for riding. The temp is about 27 degrees Celcius and sunny. It just doesn't get any better than that I'm afraid. I feel for you guys who due to where you live, the bike has to be put away for a few months. I guess it will make it all the more fun when the weather warms up and the riding starts again.
Also to all my other fellow rat club members, I too wish you all a merry Christmas and the best for the new year. From me, thankyou all those people who helped me learn so much about my bike and also how you freely gave good advice to a newbie. Thankyou all and please ride smart and safe

Merry Christmas to all the Speedmaster and Bonnie America riders and all the Triumph riders and all motorcycle riders (in that order) :-D
The forecast for tomorrow - Christmas Eve in Milwaukee Wiscconsin area is sunny and fifty degrees- so I'm gonna burn a tank or two on my Speedmaster. We had thunder storms yesterday and rain on and off today- so the salt is gone.

Yes! Happy Holidays to all!
My treat for the holiday is renting The Great Escape, Wild Hogs, Worlds Fastest Indian and of course The Wild One!
Won't tell you what the wife rented for the 4 day Holiday weekend...
Will get to ride this weekend and will twist it for all that are weather bound...
Other suggestions for Triumph's in movies?
Allin...

Nice one Flaco! Good wishes from 2006 are just as appropriate today as they were then!
Good movie choice too! Nothing like a good dose of Steve McQueen the Great Escape.

Mele Kalikemaka, thats what we say here in Hawaii.
If it drys up enough, I'll be riding for sure over the 4 day weekend. Just drizzling enough to keep the roads wet. Don't want to dirty up my Bonnie. heh LOL.
Visit the webpage and up my counter!
Thanks and Aloha
