So this morning around 8:30am I was heading north towards Reading, PA. I looked at the right lane and couldn't believe my eyes; there was a convoy of six Triumphs traveling north with Texas license plates. I wondered where are these guys heading? As I continued on I saw them exit the highway and I knew just where they were headed...... I followed them and sure enough they all pulled in to GoodParts (Richard Good) who is nearby.
Of course I stopped and chatted with them and learned they all left Texas and were headed to Cape Cod, MA.
Maybe I should have posted this the the "Spotted" section? Anyway, here's some pics of this pleasant encounter.
Anybody recognize anyone?

I hope you told them about BCF! If you didn't "I shall visit you in the small hours and put a bat up your night dress!"
 
Very cool - though your subject line sounds like an Old Tyme Country band :smile:

(and Basil, you frighten me.)
 
No need for the bat... The first thing I asked was "any of you guys on the BCF?"
I'll be looking for that check in the mail.

Haven't watched Fawlty Towers in a while I suspect. It's from "Communication Problems" the episode with the overbearing deaf lady.
 
Wow - Texas to Massachusetts in a TR3.

Double wow! A true Triumph!
 
I know that at least one of them is a nice guy, the license plate on the 6 tells the story! :highly_amused: PJ
 
Are those guys FOT? I wonder if they knew about the Kastner Cup event we held at Summit Point 2 weeks ago.

Too bad they weren't driving up then.....they would have been close and could have rolled in and joined all the ~FOT Gang including Kastner~ plus the over 100 street Triumphs and ~60+ Race Triumphs~ we had at the Jefferson 500.
 
Pretty sure they're on their way to the Cape Cod show
