"But the Most Wonderful Thing About Tiggers
...
is There's One Back in My Garage!"

12 March 2007

 

Two years after the demise of my original Triumph Tiger, fate and the extreme generosity of my good friends Greg and Elaine have conspired to once again place a Tiger in my riding stable. This past weekend, I drove to Dallas, loaded the orange beauty into the back of my truck, and brought it home. Rain, a muddy yard, and the fact that the motorcycle was dirty necessitated a break from the usual tradition of wheeling the bike into the living room for its first night at Road's End. I slept out in the garage with it that first night, though ... it's important that the whole bonding thing get off on the right foot, doncha know!

Of course, everyone remembers what happened to my first Tiger ... Stay tuned; this should be interesting.
