Haven't posted in a little while because of health problems. Mostly chronic lung related stuff triggered by a nasty winter infection.....treatment continues...... But I'm not here to whinge...many of my oldest friends aren't here at all, so I'm glad to be so. But I did object to being too ill to clean the crud off the TBA.....finally got out yesterday and made a start.....so good to see it gleam again...just the wheels to bring back, hopefully tomorrow. The Harley? Stuff it, it can wait.

Good to see you back. All the best. My bike is still snowed in but I'm getting itchy for spring. Keeping interested by watching ebay for deals and thinking about summer runs.

Spring is when the snow melts just before it hits the ground.  Take care you don't overdo it and get sick again.

Went to the bike show yesterday at the Excel in London. Triumph stand was impressive....... quite taken with T100...but less so with the Bobber....the rear end just didn't look right to my elderly view.....seat seemed to hang in mid air and when folks sat on it it looked like the bike was folding up around a hinge in the middle. Sorry if that's opinionated...but I guess that's old age for you. Now, if I can just persuade my beloved to get on that nice blue/ white T100 without insisting on spoiling it with a sissy bar and such frippery......

I saw the bobber for the first time a few weeks ago at a Triumph stand at Phillip Island race track,I thought it looked ok in the flesh, not being able to take a pillion or luggage isnt practical for me but it kept drawing me back for another look.
