Strange day

Hey Old Guy:

Congratulations.

I fine New England weekend well spent.

Spring is coming, and I hope our paths cross.

Connecticut is not that big.

Best regards,

Barry

Congrats!!! I have to say I had one of those strange days, also. At the time when my girlfriend and I met, it had been 9 years since I last owned a bike, a Ninja ZX-10. I had never owned anything other than a japanese bike. After hearing how much I loved motorcycling, she told me that she grew up riding a Triumph with her dad and that she thought men on motorcycles are sexy. I thought, cool, a women who likes motorcycles. One day while driving by a local Triumph dealer, she suggested we stop in and take a look. Needless to say, I slammed on the brakes and swerved into the parking lot. We went inside and upon seeing the black Thruxton, I fell in love. It was one year old and being sold on consignment. She asked if I wanted it for my birthday. With the look of a deer caught in a cars headlights, I said, “are you f__cking kidding me”. She said no and gave the dealer a low ball offer and they accepted it. I couldn’t believe it. I was onehappy man. Nine months later we bought her a Centennial Edition Bonnie. She said she liked it because the lucifer orange paint color matched her hair.
