– I remember when Triumph launched their T594 Daytona and sibling T509. In 1997 the design was leaps ahead of other bikes of the time. This custom has a post apocalyptic vibe, ready for an overgrown highway.

Commuter Suzuki
– spied on Lake Shore Drive on my way into work today. A well used V-Strom carrying its owner into the City. The decal clad top box says this rider means business in urban traffic.

Leafless
We’re getting back to some degree of normalcy here. I finally got to take the Tiger for a spin. Chilly weather under clear blue skies called for the the full heated gear and head to toe GoreTex outfit. Kept fairly cosy in the 39°F air temperatures. I ventured along a few of the usual gravelly backroads for a quiet section of travel. A few trail side ponds were skinned with a thin sheet of ice. Oak trees grab skyward with their sculptural skeletal form.

Ink
– glass artist Amy Jean Nichols enjoys a sideline drawing art cards depicting classic motorcycles. Her studio is called Rigadoon Glass, after her adventurous travels aboard her R75/5 BWW sidecar rig. This Triumph Triple is one such card that looks the part for old fashioned communication.

Bin Lid
– I’ve been using the flip up Shoei Multitec helmet for a little while. Mostly comfortable apart for the occasional pressure point on my forehead hairline. The integrated Sena Bluetooth headset is handy for chatting with other riders as well as the phone, music or podcasts.
