Hey all, it's that time again. The Bennington Triumph Bash is coming up in less than two months. If you're unfamiliar, this is an informal, low-key, but very successful rally for Triumph enthusiasts. We've been doing this for eight years now and have a great time every year.
We get Triumph riders (and those who simply like Triumphs) from all over the Northeast, of course, but we also get people riding in from much farther away -- as far south as Alabama, as far west as Washington State, we've even had a few international riders who joined us as part of a long North American tour.
It's a fun event because of the people who attend. It's a great crowd. And as far as bikes go, it's a good mix of styles.
Join us in Bennington, Vermont, the weekend after Memorial Day!

PS: You need to preregister for the Saturday dinner, and we're limited to 75 people this year, so if you're planning to attend, get your registration in.

I've wanted to go every year for the last 5 or 6, but something has always gotten in the way. I'm hoping I can pitch this effectively to my wife (it'll hopefully be her first season riding and also we're committed to going to at least a day or two of americade with my dad...). So anyway: I think this'll be my first year there (I hope). I don't really want to go to americade, but my dad is super into it. The only part of americade I'm really into is test rides and the trade show which takes a day and a half, tops... But my dad doesn't have a triumph and is super into americade,... Anyway, I'm trying to sell the wife on two moto meets in a week... Hope to be there.
