ps. There is a Brit Bike Rally in Wisconsin very soon. But the organisers made it clear that one has to show on a Brit Bike or he/she is not welcome. Is this the prevailing attitude of the Brit Bike world? Gee whiz, at the BMW National, we welcome everyone who is on two wheels with an engine--even the lowly H-D's! Kinda threw me for a loop, if you know I mean.



Groups like the Brit Iron Rebels are like that. They don't even want us around on our cruiser version of their Bonnevilles. If you ask any of them in person they'll deny it but just try and e-mail them through their web site.

There were plenty of different bikes at the Kootenay Raid and that was an official Triumph event. Saw Suzukis, Moto Guzzis, Harleys, etc. Granted, not a lot of them, but they weren't turned away.
