Title: Re: Triumph Owners' show. 29th July 06. Post by: Plainy Janie on July 30, 2006, 06:52:31 AM Good to see you all there yesterday, your trikes all looked fabulous! really they did!
Don't say it Manky, just don't say it!!! Title: Re: Triumph Owners' show. 29th July 06. Post by: Plainy Janie on July 30, 2006, 07:07:13 AM Manky, could you email me photograph 159 from the TOMC - with Jacko and Titch. When I try to print from the gallery, it only takes up a quarter of the paper, when you email me the photo they come out hooooooooge, and take up the whole of an A4 side. Pretty please ;D
Title: Re: Triumph Owners' show. 29th July 06. Post by: Manky Monkey on July 30, 2006, 10:51:56 AM The large gallery photo size is set at 500 x 500 but I always email you the original size, which is about 1200. Consider it done Madam. :)
Title: Re: Triumph Owners' show. 29th July 06. Post by: Manky Monkey on July 30, 2006, 11:40:01 AM Got chatting to this couple as the show was winding down. They've been riiding the same Triumph for over 50 years. He said he stopped to offer her a lift to work one morning & they'd been together ever since.
Title: Re: Triumph Owners' show. 29th July 06. Post by: lunatic on July 31, 2006, 09:43:38 PM Last bloody time I go to a Triumph meet! Walking around minding me own business when a tiger came out of nowhere an stabbed me with its brake lever leaving a nasty wound! Its not even like I provoked it! ;D
The enfields were much more passive! Title: Re: Triumph Owners' show. 29th July 06. Post by: Manky Monkey on July 31, 2006, 10:02:56 PM Beware crouching tiger!
I spent half the day badgering my mate Bob to get some photos of his little Metisse scrambler for the site but the carpark was too busy to get it out & to a more photogenic spot & by the time the place began to empty out we were all getting ready to leave. Bob's got a nice custom Harley too, plus a gorgeous blue & chrome Bonny & at least one other Triumph. He also built the little black bobber that everyone liked so much at the Dr B's show. Only lives in Brighton Hill, Basingstoke, so I'll get round there soon & do a couple of write-ups. Loony, you going to do those bike features for us soon? Title: Re: Triumph Owners' show. 29th July 06. Post by: lunatic on July 31, 2006, 10:16:12 PM Bikes? Wot bikes? Cars yes. Waitng for them to be more photogenic (less rusty, more finished)
Title: Re: Triumph Owners' show. 29th July 06. Post by: Manky Monkey on July 31, 2006, 10:18:04 PM Weren't you going to chase up that Reliant Regent van thingy?
Title: Re: Triumph Owners' show. 29th July 06. Post by: lunatic on July 31, 2006, 10:21:18 PM Thats not a bike! Its a van/trike thingy! Am on the case Mr Monkey!
Title: Re: Triumph Owners' show. 29th July 06. Post by: Manky Monkey on July 31, 2006, 10:24:22 PM Picky, picky, picky. I shall expect your report on my desk first thing Monday morning then!
Title: Re: Triumph Owners' show. 29th July 06. Post by: lunatic on July 31, 2006, 10:26:49 PM Bugger!
