Haven’t seen you since those heady days of Shakespeare raceway. Now probably a new town!

How are things in the four-wheel department?

I may have gone over to Porsche and maybe doing a track day at Snetterton tomorrow in it, probably smile

The 4 wheel department is filled by a Mustang GT at the moment…

But to be honest it’s the 2 wheel dept that takes up most of my interest and time..

Lovely bikes, not so nice leg!

I don’t know what it means, but it can’t be good!

As for the Triumphs, aren’t they enormous compared to early bikes, I had a Triumph T90 when I was 16, and it seemed quite a large bike at the time, even though I was 6-2”. Current day monsters are enormous!

The leg is due to getting knocked off the Speedmaster by a blind driver.. Broken in 6 places and knee smashed so badly I needed a new one.

I then sold the Rocket cos I knew it’d be to heavy..

The other bikes in the triumph range seem pretty normal to me, except the Tiger 1200 which is a bit of a lump.

I ran a couple of triumph tiger, 955‘s for commuting to, from and around London for several years. They were big enough.!

Still remember that passenger ride in your LS Griff, spinning up the rears at 85 in third.....
That leg photo reminds me I need to order some more staples.
I do hope it isn't causing you too much regular pain.
