TorontoTim Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Sorry to hear about your back, Brian. But it makes me wonder: once you're in a TR, why would you ever want to get out? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brian -r Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Only for the call of nature Tim PS .and maybe a beer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mick Forey Posted May 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 The event is a great success with nearly 300 Triumphs of all models from the pre-1940s to an Acclaim. There are well over 100 TR6s. After a sunny morning the dark clouds arrived followed by the rain. A grand day out and about. Mick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brenda Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Good day out and a good turn out of Triumph cars some that I have not seen at other shows. Fun to watch when it started to rain. Mike. Redrose group Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Hi Folks, it was a very pleasant social day. Far too many people to chat to. Nice venue Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mick Forey Posted May 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 The pre-1940 club were very pleased with the turnout and are happy to organise another picnic at a similar date next year for all clubs within the Standard Triumph forum. So if you could not make it this year then reserve some space in your calendar for next year. There were Triumphs from all over the country and I even met a member who came over from Holland in his TR6. Nowhere is far in a TR. We sold lots of rally plaques and t-shirts at the TR Register gazebo and gained a few new members. Plaques and t-shirts are available on the TR Register shop: https://www.tr-registershop.co.uk/tr650-t-shirt-10358-p.asp. Thanks go to Wayne who picked up the gazebo and the regalia from Didcot plus all those who helped man the stall during the day. Mick Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tim hunt Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 Great video Steve, thanks for uploading - did you ever think about trying two hands on the wheel? Tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steved69tr6 Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 Cheers Tim, The camera doesn't show well as its mounted to a sucker on the windscreen, but my left hand is on the wheel just low down as I like to have my left hand not far from changing gears, and my right hand higher up so to lean my right arm on the door, I just find it comfortable driving roadsters like that Cheers Steve Quote Link to post Share on other sites
