I just got back from a week in and around London (first time - loved it!) and I only saw one Triumph - a gold Daytona in the raffle at the airport! I saw plenty of bikes but none of ours. The irony - on the way home from the airport a silver America rolled by. Home sweet home

It's normal. I quite like not seeing them everywhere... Irony is, mine's back in the dealers..... and so I'm on a Riceburner of some description at the mo. Going into work this morning and I see a Blue America.... Made me want mine back....

09 America - It's very blue....

I have a few of the random countryside. Not great weather and I didn't get a chance to do much sightseeing in London.
I spent most of the time just outside of London in Brentwood, East Malling and Chelmsford. Nice little places with tons of character and super-genuine people.
So, a question for those near there - what is up w/the M25? Is it always a parking lot? One day there was something like 40,000 chickens that got loose and they shut it down. Another day there was a tragic accident at 1am and at 8 am still horrible? I thought LA and NY traffic was bad!

Every time I end up on the M25 it is always busy and I end up parked up for ages, it's suppost to be the busiest motorway in Europe it certainly lives up to it
