– north of the Tweed you’ll get a draughty headwind if the tartan blaws awry. But you’ll look braw dae’n it.

Dune Duster
Ace Maria
– converted Bonneville with meant characteristics to take on any desert terrain. Fun in a Tin.

Orange is not the only Fruit
Start the week off with a shot of Vitamin Cee
– Bonneville with a fiery tank and surly gal. Warmer weather ahead as the season develops. Fresh days ahead.

Red Hot Chilli Pepper
Flaming Triumph
A red frame does look smart on an early seventies Bonneville. The large oil filled frame gives weight to the accent color.

Equinox
– vernal days as we head into longer days and warmer weather. A sunny Sunday is expected tomorrow so the Tiger is getting readied. Here’s the new Bonneville model for release this year. Continually classic.

Long armed
– someone had a mind to give their early seventies oil-in-frame Bonnie a conversion. Reangled and strengthened headstock; extra foot on the fortis; ape hangers; fishtail pipes; and a sissy bar. it doesn’t look half bad… though I wouldn’t want to corner with it. Big desert roads out west.

Of trunk and branch
– pre-unit Bonnie that has been tastefully fettled for action along a rural trail. Looks like a proper bike.

Shady Alcove
In a dusty corner
– just needing a dust-off, lubrication, gas up and a quiet winding road.

Sharpie Sketch
Orange is the New Black
– as part of my sketch a day I rattled off a quick pen drawing of the Bonnie’s engine.

Of Mountains & Glaciers
Snow & Ice
– some Triumph Bonneville owner taking his steed over a wintry mountain pass. We’re heading into minus degrees Fahrenheit windchills for the next few days so a balmy alpine col wouldn’t be too bad…

Feline Good!
– this chap has found an ideal perch to view the world from. Our furry companions always find the best locations for rest and recuperation.

Oh Tannenbaum
– as Frank Costanza would celebrate, with a seasonal gathering around an aluminum pole, allowing family and friends the annual opportunity to air grievances. A classic Triumph is surely a better focus than a pipe. “Serenity Now!”

SK-T120R
– as promised here’s a new sketch of one of Matt Triumphs. This is the Bonnie which I’ve had for 10 years bought from a West Chicago biker gang as a ‘project’. Well she looks quite picturesque now.

In the dunes
– a week shy of Thanksgiving sees us in the transition of seasons. Cooler weather and shorter days means wrapping up and making sure your clearly visible in duller lights or low suns.
