Hello everyone.

I'm a new rider that always loved the Triumphs. Got an 08 R3T and can't stop grinning when I'm bombing around the hills just outside Toronto, Canada, especially with the leaves in full fall color. I'm hooked - this bike is loads of fun.

Welcome from Delaware, and steer clear of those leaves when they're on the pavement.

Thanks for the welcome

Yup - loving it.
Unlike Australia, I'll have to find somewhere warm to put my baby for a few months. Might only get 6 more weeks of riding in this season.

It's a great town and the economy has been pretty decent if you do come back. It's a bit too expensive for a lot of folks though - especially if you want to own your home. Always good news/bad news I guess.

Kinda funny story: Just did a talk in bismarck and bumped into another rocket owner. Turns out the guy that invited me to do the session had a triumph sticker on his car - i had no idea - we realized that we're both riding the same beastie.

Welcome from Iowa

Welcome, I have a 2009 R3T so I know about the smiles thang. I have the same situation being northern. I was asked just yesterday " When do you stop riding?" by my boss. I said " When the frost stays on the pavement." Good luck and good to hear from you. Enjoy!!!
