Well it was fun... to be the only Triumph at work. There are 3 Japanese bikes that park at the same place that I do but to my surprise there is a new Triumph this week! a red Speedmaster. Too bad I've been sick or it would have been cool to park together, ah will do that on monday  left the guy a note with this website, maybe he/she will introduce his/her self.

Maybe they thought yours was so cool, they decided to get one! 
Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

At least we know the other rider has good sense.

You still don't see too many on the road. Especially green ones with brown leather seats and bags.

Well I think Triumph only puts out like 40 something thousand units a year, I think. At that rate, it'll take awhile. But I like having that rare, unique, and BEAUTIFUL bike in a sea of commonality. It ads to the spice of owning a TRIUMPH.

I know what it's like to be outnumbered.I started a bike club at work 6 years ago and have had up to 12 members. A good mix of hondas, yammi's & harleys and of course my America. I'm the sole survivor of not being taken in by the forces of the "dark side!" Everyone else has bought a harley. Sad but true. There'a a lot of tasteless people here in central Mass.

There are three hospital campuses where I work. On a good summer day you may find around 55 employee bikes. Lowest count is the crotch rockets, your highest count will find your metric cruisers. Typically there are around 10 or 15 Harleys.
Representing Triumph. My Speedmaster, an ER tech's Legend 900 and someone from OR has a Sprint. Once in a great while I'll see a Daytona someone brings. Guess that's not too bad of stats.
