A Ride out to our local Monastery

[Mad On Triumphs]

Every year in November the local bike club in the area of Albox in South eastern Spain, has a run out to the local monastery. Here are a few pictures that may be of interest to you.
They even close one side of the road off in the town so that you can park your bike up, and have a walk around.





Saved the best picture till last, my 1995 Thunderbird.

Couldn't resist naming our house after a Triumph

Great pics and a fine looking Thunderbird. That looks like a really fun outing.

LOVE that '95 T-bird!!! Looks like a great time was had by all.

Very nice
Love the T-Bird

I must admit, I really do love my Thunderbird. I can honestly say that I'll never sell it. In 37 years of riding it is with out a doubt the best bike I've ever had. The styling for me is spot on, and for a lot of other people too.
I'm really looking forward to the largest Triumph Rally in Europe coming up in Austria in June, and taking her round the mountains. A whole week surrounded by Triumph Motorbikes ( What a sad person I am, and proud off it ) and some of the best scenery in Europe http://www.tridays.com/
I'm hopping to do a nice spread on this forum when I get back with lots of pictures. I just hope I don't cause a meltdown, as I do get carried away with the camera.
Take care everyone

I spent some time in Austria in the early 90's. It is a beautiful country - in the summer- and offers some superb riding.

Sweet T-Bird I can see why you are proud of it. Thanks for sharing the photos, looks like something that would be fun to walk around and eye the bikes. I noticed something or maybe I overlooked something but do they open this up to no-street legal bikes? The reason I ask is that it appears there was two or three dirt bikes without license plates on them.

Very nice looking event and looks like you get a great turnout on it. Very nice set of photos and the Tbirds does look great Looking forward to the next set of photos

Good question, the Spanish Police seem to have a liberal approach to traffic laws at best, these events are policed mainly by the Local Police, and not the Guadia Civil, which are the national police force over here, well there is another police section higher than the Guardia Civil ( All very confusing, I don't have much to do with any of them as I keep my nose clean ).
Being a local event, a high percentage of the people who attend the event, are known to the local police and can get away with a bit. Some of the bikes that have no number plates could have one tucked away at the lower part of the mudguard closest to the engine, which is total obscured by the rear wheel ( Hope that makes sense ) and some have them are so small the you almost need a telescope to see them.
I'll see if I can dig out a few more pics of my T Bird, now I have a big head, with the kind comments about my bike.
I have a few more events that I've attended over here, so Ill post them later as well.
Take Care

[Mad On Triumphs]

A few more pics of the T Bird for you. And my garage in Spain

 

[CarlS]

Fine looking bike and garage.

Great photos of the T Bird & Nice garage When I grow up (mentally) I want a garage a lot like yours. I do have one question, have you decided what brand motorcycle you like? It was hard to tell by looking at the garage photos.

 

[keystiger]

o.k. o.k. how the H**L do you keep your garage so freakin clean?!?!?!?!?

When I grow up I wanna live in Mads garage!

 

[DaveM]

Very nice setup, love the second photo with the chairs

Yes I must admit, I'm having a hard time giving my loyalty to one brand, I'll make my mind up one day
