Re: [emrat:3412] Baxter Cycle, Marne IA

Thanks Dan:

At the risk of stirring up Bonneville Bob's Triumph passion on this nice Christmas Eve,  I can help make your bucket item come true.  The National BMW MOA rally is in St Paul, July 23-26, let's take US 34 across Nebraska and Iowa, stop at Baxter's and continue north to St Paul.  Then after the MOA, it's a trip north to Duluth and visit Aerostich, then across ND and drop into Sturgis for the 74th Annual.  Line up your vacation time as the New Year hits.

Just so no one thinks this is just a joking response, that is my real plan for mid-2014.  Happy Holidays to all and hope t hat Santa brings you that coveted MC item, what ever it is!

Every year at this time, I order classic Triumph calendars from Baxter's.  The shop sells both modern Triumphs as well as classic British bikes, and rebuilds and restores the latter.  It is a pretty famous, iconic shop, known worldwide, and I hope to visit it someday.

I don't mean to torture Keith Houghton, but I just had to recently send him a Craig's List link to this red 1999 T595 Daytona, which is at Baxter's; hopefully, there will be one in his future someday:

Finally, here's an recent article from a Wellington, New Zealand, newspaper about the modern Triumph Bonneville.  A good friend of mine is down there and he just had to email me a photo of the article.
