I've never been to Mid-Ohio for the vintage bike event, but it looks like this year might be the one to attend. Triumph is the featured marque and they have also:

"THE VERY FIRST PUBLIC UNVEILING OF A BRAND NEW 2009 TRIUMPH!!!!!!!! "
Motorcycle Days @ Mid-Ohio

Anyone have this scheduled?

Interesting that they buried that happening in the middle of the story.

Yeah! I sometimes wonder what the definition of "brand new" really means to those fellas who make motorcycles!

(I know to H-D it often means..."Hey LOOK folks! We have a brand spankin' new seat and rear fender designed just for YOU, and we're callin' it the GeezerGlide!!!")

But THEN AGAIN...do you folks "suppose" it could mean the unveiling of that..ahem..."you know what"???

(yeah...like callin' it the "you know what" won't start this thread goin' in a "certain direction" there Dwight...reeeeal smoooooth there, dude!!!)

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

I also just noticed this "Lucky Brand" jean ad on the Triumph email. Yikes, $120 for a pair of jeans!
What are these dudes smoking?
Lucky Brand Jeans - Wow!

I will be at Mid-Ohio for Vintage. Our regional Triumph rep contacted our dealership(Hinds Motorsports) this week and asked us to work their retail booth at the event. I didn't hear anything about a new model being unveiled, but I'm sure I can find something out. If nothing else, I will take lots of pictures when the time comes.

Very Cool! They have info on Triumph's web site (or rather they make mention of it) about the unveiling (link is in the first post of this thread).

You know that you are now on a mission. should you accept this mission (if you dont.. welll, we don't want to talk about that ). We are expecting live up to the second pic postings of that new bike (and I am crossing my fingers it is not the Tiger Cub).

But seriously, since you're going (or for anyone else that is going), if you have a cell phone camera, up to the second pics would be awesome (email them to me from your phone).

Hey Brandon, John asked me the other day if I could work the booth. Ask Jeff if that's still the case cause I'm all for it!

Thanks,
Jim

PS - I'll have the Canon G9 out in full force for ya'll.
