Absolutely stunning Blackbird I saw today at the Spring Slimey Crud Run. Saw it up in Leland, WI. Unfortunately there were way too many bikes around it for me to park my Storm next to it and get some shots of them together. Ran into another T-Bird owner who was from Stoughton, WI. Had a nice chat about the Birds. Saw another 1600 pulling out of Leland but didn't get a chance to talk to the owner. Tons of other Triumphs around as well. Vintage and new. But this one took the show by far.

I was admiring that bike too. a classic.

my T-bird was parked in just behind that red truck in the background of your second picture picture.

one of the nicest days for the spring slimy crud in years. huge turn out. lots of cops on the roads (some cleverly hidden)

Damn, sorry I missed your Bird. We hit a couple of the auxiliary lots in Leland but not all of them. It was nice to see so many Triumphs there. Leland was packed and so was Pine Bluff. It was a great day for a ride. We took a very loooong route to get to Leland. Didn't want to stop riding. So many great roads out that way. Nothing better than seeing a twisty roads next 5 miles sign. You just start smiling.
