Five Triumphs, (Thruxton R, Street Twin, Tiger 800XC, Daytona 675R and Street Triple R) with a shocked and saddened Mancunian now living in NJ along to make it real, on a spirited ride with breakfast on one end, and delicious cake and coffee on the other. Nice roads in Western Monmouth and Burlington Counties, great weather, and home in time for a few hours at the beach...a perfect Saturday morning. And saw a black CB1100 in Allentown, anyone here, per chance?

Brexit ride lol good one. Sounds like a grand time Capo.

I rode with 3 triumphs today up to the Yamaha demo days (2 Bonnies, 1 Sprint ST, and a 800 triple ADV pulled in right after us).

What was left for you to demo?

LOL..today I rode Super Tenere' and FJ-09. I have ridden both before, but both were a suprise and different than the last time I rode them. The FJ-09 better, the Tenere worse. I turned down riding an FJR 1300 ES. Ridden them 3 or 4 times in the past and it was getting hot out.

That STen is an enigmatic beast. I rode one and it felt like a tractor, but not necessarily in a bad way. But it's fat. My buddy has an FJR and it's amazing how agile that bike can be in the right hands. In other words, not my hands. I think it's great you got to do all those tests, we rarely get demo days around here any more.

I reckon the only cure for Brexit may well be a ride.

How much you pay for that word? I had to look it up. By my calculations, today it's worth 9 Euros, but tomorrow, who knows?

Why was the Mancunian sad?

**Cormanus** · 06-26-2016 08:15 AM

Nemo, because he missed his Brexit?

Ulvetanna, if you pay for it in Euros you should be fine. Sterling, now, that's another matter entirely.

No, his Brexit was delicious. Cake, as I recall. Let them eat cake...didn't someone say that once?

Coin of the realm is aurum here but I would go with the bimetallic standard as well. I am quite democratic about such things.
