Marvelous weather and a splendid ride north along the Lake. Dean and Nikolai made up the trio of our pack as we swung by Illinois State Beach Park. The Tiger was fresh from its important 12,000 mile service at Motoworks and ran like new. superb!
Sail on Silver Girl
Perfect weather for a ride today. Through Lake County along the back roads to Lake Geneva in Wisconsin. Pear blossom highlighting the hedges, countless bikers on the roads. Smashing!
Lakefront
December ride along the many blue hued waters of Lake Michigan. The horizon line was a dark edge under a crisp aired sky. Some turquoise colors were spreading towards the beach and bluffs of the Northshore. Good ride.
Autumnal Hues
I needed to get the wheels spinning under me and clear fresh Fall air blow cobwebs away. Blue October sky like a bluebirds wing, trees painted with a fiery splash. It always livens the senses when the leaves last hurrah of the season flares.
I wore the open-face helmet to ensure the sensations were keenly enjoyed.
Tiger Cub
400cc and will be on sale for $5,500. This is a little corker of a machine ready for urban and light off-road duties. Belter!
Wisconsin Roads are made of cheese
Beautiful weather today and a great 200 miler over into the Kettle Moraine area south west of Milwaukee. Smooth rolling triads through elephant eye high corn. Stopped for a fine late breakfast at Whitewater, a pleasant wee town with historical downtown. Key Lime cheesecake was a fine accompaniment to the meat-lovers skillet! Good mates to ride with!
Gadding along LSD
Another year helping take the photographers and race marshals around the cycling course up and down Jean-Baptiste Pointe DuSable Lake Shore Drive. Weather just right for the dry stages but the swimming outset was canceled due to choppy conditions.
Burlington & Racine
todays jaunt saw us hoofing it into Wisconsin to find some good sweeping country roads. Through the quiet town of Burlington where we stopped to have coffee to the lakefront harbor at Racine.
Good weather was enjoyed too.

Tiger Tiger
Cats enjoying a quiet moment together. The red accents of the current sport version of Triumphs feline Moto gives it a splendid level of pizzazz. Ginger kit like the look too!

Gurning
No horse collar to frame my grin. Just my new tires (tyres) for the Tiger. Easiest way to tote them to the garage at work. These are Shinko’s with a 90/10 tread (road/trail).
Independent
An early morning scoot down DuSable Lake Shore Drive before 4th of July crowds started to make their way to the beaches and parks. Stopped for my favorite view of the skyline. Warm day but a cool breeze wafted from a still Michigan.
24 Hours
Iván Cervantes, 5x Enduro World Champion and Triumph Global Ambassador, has officially claimed the GUINNESS WORLD RECORD for ‘The greatest distance on a motorcycle in 24 hours (individual)’.
Riding a Tiger 1200 GT Explorer on the High-Speed Ring at the Nardò Technical Center in Italy, Iván travelled more than 2493mi in a 24-hour period, beating the previous record by a huge margin of more than 372.82mi.
Ride to Work Day
With quieter roads on this Juneteenth holiday the Tiger became my wheels into the City. Nice spin along the lakefront on LSD and riverside on Wacker. Pleasant light through the buildings too.
