Bennington Triumph Bash

Anybody as excited as I am ? I'm ready to leave this popcorn stand behind for a few. It'll be a decent time-out for awhile. A little anxious I am. Are we there yet?

No work, no wife, no kids, I can't believe it's true. This is like waiting to turn 21. I don’t think it’s ever going to come.

Hello Everyone!

I've been looking this event over and decided to ditch Americade and throw in with you guys! VT is a nice day ride for me, so I really looking forward to it. I hope you guys like old farts who try to ride sport bikes

Hey blip, do you still have the 96 900?

Speed, I'm trying to sell my chevy so I can finish getting everything I need....like fucking gas money.......I can't wait to meet everyone and toss back some brews on friday night, saturday night, maybe even sunday but the brew will have to be non-beer, for the ride home.

I hope you guys like old farts who try to ride sport bikes

Ton Up!

Anxious, yeah I'd say I'm a little anxious.
I have only been waiting for about 6 months.
We are almost there Man.
I can't wait to meet every one.

Bill

Damn you guys got it bad LOL. I wonder what the hell we are going to do to top this one you know every one has to out do the last.

No, I sold it back in 05 to buy my 2K. I wrecked it once and had it rebuilt. I sold it right after I spent all kinds of money upgrading the suspension and brakes. It was loud to (D&D Pipes) Boy would that bike howl!

I only feel old when I'm not riding! I've slowed down some, but I got hit by a mini van back in 05 and I was one big bruise for several weeks. That will bring you down a notch or two in speed.

49? Why I ought to . . .
Look here you young Fuck . . . I just turned 50 on the 28th and everything fucking hurts but i am still gonna take my broken down butt ugly monkey ass up to BTB if I have to be wheeled up on a Gurney!

Hedge from some of your recent posts I hope you are not on that damn gurney.

Tito I didn't know you were 49. Holy shit.

The Surgeon just called me and said nothing is torn. He said I am as lucky as can be as far as damage. He is going to use scopic surgery on June 6th and just clean out the shoulder and shave a little of the bone down to open up the socket a bit.
He said i will be out of the sling in 1 day and fully healed inside of 2-3 months. Then it will be time for the right shoulder. I might wait on the right depending on my threshold for pain until the end of November when the riding season is over. Between the cortisone shot I just got in my right shoulder and the pain pills I have in inventory i will have no problems riding up to the BTB at the end of this month! You can take that to the Bank!

Mr. Speedblastr,

I see your handiwork at Triumph Net. Very nice work, loading up all the BTB with new stuff. That oughta do it!

I am eagerly looking forward to the ride up and all the British Iron laying around once there. Campers: don't forget to book your site at Woodford.
