We all know the thingymajigs go to Mecca, the Jews go to the western Wall and the Catholics go and see the guy with the funny hat.

Now if you are a true believer in Triumph you have to go to the Vintage weekend at Barbers Museum in Leeds AL.
Triumph sponsors the weekend and you will see every bike except HDs well you will see a couple but they are few and far between, this will be my fourth year in a row and it is brilliant so come along and show your true colours. Oct 7-8-9th

I plan to be there for one day and would like to meet up with other captains if just to eat a chicken wing and have a beer.
Let me kow your plans and maybe we could even meet up before to ride in at the same time.
I missed last year and am ready for this year's event.
Have you done the parade laps???
Barbour on a rocket just sounds fun...

would love to but 5000 miles return is way out of my league ..
 
I plan on going again this year. Last year I saw only one rocket in the in the sea of thousands of motorcycles that were there! I believe Triumph USA allows Triumph bikes to park in the grass lot behind their display tent, which saves a lot of walking. When are you guys going?

They usually do but why it is easier to park at the entrance and use the tram system if you are walking any distance it is only because you want to.
 
Be like going home for me -- being one of the slower boys from Alabama (though they say, you can never go home). Was last there when I graduated from college in May 1981.

Where do you stay while there ? Too late to make arrangements ?
 
If you leave tomorrow you will only have to cover about 130miles each day, on the return journey you can do the 2500miles in one day:D

never thought of it that way !! that trip I will miss it :(
but next year I will put low pressure balloon tires and ride across the atlantic spending june july and some august across spain and france ( again):D or maybe fly to frankfurt from calgary me and the beast.if I cannot fit fat tires
