It pays to care for pets

[Rocky]

My daughter and her husband flew to Austria two weeks ago for a vacation and just because they had never been to Prague, Budapest and Vienna.
They have four cats and it fell to me to care for them at their house. One cat I could bring here, but not four!!
But it's summer so it was a good excuse for a morning ride and a visit since I'm a cat lover. A couple of times I tuned into TT on her computer while I was there.
The young folks have been quite busy since they got home and only dropped by yesterday with souvenirs.
My reward for "pet patrol" was these classic bike designs found in a shop in Prague.
They are thin concave cast iron with a lovely enamel finish and holes to mount them.
The size is 117mm (4 5/8") in diameter.

Very Cool, some of the best "payments" are the unexpected ones

Sweet. You scored good for looking after a herd of cats.

 

[CarlS]

Those look great. That is a cool gift. Your daughter knows how to pick things.

 

[DaveM]

Wow those are really COOL

 

[Rocky]

Yes, they are nice and I was delighted to get them.
The young folks know I like anything related to motorcycles - especially classics.
My daughter is quite informed about bikes; Triumph's, BSA's, etc. I wonder where she picked that up
BTW, the discs are actually convex (bow out slightly like a dome) and not concave (bow in) as I mentioned and will sit flat on any surface I decide to mount them on.

I could see that on the Triumph one very nice

 

[CarlS]

They look reall good. Have you decided where you are going mount them?

Wonderful payment for taking care of a few puddy tats...

No I haven't.
I may put them on the panelled wall in my basement hobby room.
They will fit in with my "decor"

 

[CarlS]

Yes, they certainly will! Your garage looks so good.

The Triumph badge is actually a Standard-Triumph logo used by the Triumph Motor Company, LTD. (cars).

I was thinking that; but I did not research it.

Yes, I knew it wasn't the traditional Triumph motorcycle logo, but I'm happy with it.

That's all that matters.

You're just going to have to get a Triumph roadster to go with that badge Rocky!

Here's a nice one:

It has the globe style Triumph badge in the center of the hubcaps.

And another,....
