Another wonderful Triumph event. Don't want to sound like a "homer", and I've owned LOTS of bikes, but our Triumph's simply rule!

Home safe and sound. 1,023 miles in 53 hours. I am beat. Great time. Got to see my daughter for a couple of hours and hang with the people a little too. If I do it again next year I will be taking some time off from work to spread it out a little more. Might even put the big shield on if you can believe that. Thank you Ed and of course the Mrs. for putting on the rally again. Curtiss museum was great.
My mind and body are still out of tune
I hope they run into each other real soon "

I made it home. The bike didn't run great but it kept fireing on both cylinders so I made it home with my spare igniter. I had a GREAT time. Thanks to all there. Gotta go unpack the bike now.

Home safe and sound... but I've got a headache.
Couldn't get a song out of my mind the whole way home.
"Have a good time, but remem e ber, there is danger, in the summer moon above" "Will I see you, in Septem e ber, or lose you, to a summer love?"...... (no h...)
help me.......
All kidding aside, there ain't enough thank yous available for the time and effort Ed and Vicki and family put into these rallys. I had a great time, even counting the impromptu "tech day".
Thanks again.

You guys (gals too) are great people! I had fun meeting you all. We had a great ride out to ellicottville too. How was the "elixir"? It was the tame version...next year I'll bring some hi test for Deon!

Looks very good there. I might be up for going to that next year......if you let me 
Before the war on terror, if I saw an unattended package I used to think "I'll be having that!"

 Great posting of the pics Ed...Unclecharlie looks wicked fast on that modded Thruxton...and that menacing bunch from Bucks with their black leathers...look out  Also if you can sleep in the back seat of Ed's truck without setting off the most ear piercing alarm when opening the door in the middle of the night..you might be a candidate for camping..

Thanks to Ed & Family for making my first rally so enjoyable. Thanks to Bucky & Uncle Charlie for the unbridled levity - I love you guys (no h***). Thanks to Deon & Snert for the conversation - glad to hear ya got her home. Jeff - I hope to see you & Ed when you come to Syracuse to Destiny Motorsports. I made it home in time to take my wife to dinner for our anniversary. I even had the good sense to walk in w/ flowers & a slide whistle from Curtiss. How could she say no? NEXT YEAR I CAMP!

 I want to camp next year too...Bucky made it look like so much fun I wanna get in on it...I only live 31 miles away but that's not the point..staying late isn't a problem when you're tent is set up with king sized air mattress... polar expedition down sleeping bag..and Triumph flannel jammies..(No H***) Hey John I'm heading to Destiny tomorrow morning but I figure you'll be working...Ed and I will set up a meeting with you there...Good one for your anniversary...well done..
