Friday evening

An open house at the Triumph dealer Motoworks was attended last evening. The ride down too an hour and a half; covering the fifteen mikes from Evanston in slow/stop holiday weekend commuter traffic along Western Avenue. The Bonnie didn’t like the slow progress with her engine warming up a little too much when crawling along.

Nevertheless we got there to see the Triumph flat track racers showing off their tools: and what machines they are! Go fast, turn, repeat.

Sunset photoshoot for staff and racers both. To be competitively fast you need to have a jockey-like stature… My cooling moto looks on sweating oil weeps…

A nifty mobile workshop is an absolute necessity when hauling between oval mike venues. Nicely equipped facility here!

Gearing sir? We have you covered!
We rode back up Lake Shore Drive at dusk. A cool but invigorating haul back north. The city’s skyscrapers reflected a golden sun, beyond the deepening night swallowed the lake beyond.

  1. Hey Geordie, Did you photograph this? “…The city’s skyscrapers reflected a golden sun, beyond the deepening night swallowed the lake beyond….” If not, sounds like you definitely should have old son {:-)> Early morning or early evening rides are magic.Cheers, Les
