My first bike was a 99 Legend, and I have spent a considerable amount of time over on the Triumphrat forum in the Classic Triples section, first asking lots of questions, and now answering many of those same questions for other newbies.
Having read about a Classic Triples Rally, I actually volunteered and hosted one in the Adirondacks a few years ago, and we had a great turnout and some awesome rides. I was finally able to meet many of the folks with whom I had chatted on the forum, and I continued to attend this moving rally each year, discovering new states and new roads.
This year I offered to host once again, but only one person attended who was not one of my riding buddies, so we only had four bikes. Still, the weather was fantastic and the routes were great, so I though I would post up a few of the pictures just in case one of you might be interested in my region. (If anyone ever needs some suggestions for routes in the Adirondacks or even a guide for a few days, I would be glad to help).
Interesting collection of Triumphs

We did about 315 miles on Saturday, and then another 225 on Sunday. Really perfect riding weather.
Sure is pretty
Having just got back from a trip to France, and bearing in mind various rides in England, Scotland and Wales, we do indeed live on a beautiful planet and you don't have to ride far to find it. Thanks for sharing! :icon_biggrin:
