    Hi everybody,

    I'm Vincent (aka Gambit2011).
    I bought a Triumph Sprint ST 1050 (2010) today.
    Before i drove a Suzuki Intruder 700 vs, which i still own. And a BMW R 1100 RT which i turned in for the Sprint ST. I was born in 1980 and i'm a driving instructor for my occupation.
    Married with Mia and father of Lisa, We also have two cats. (Elmo & Tijger ). IMG-20170719-WA0001.jpeg

    Hello Vincent and a warm welcome to the Triumph Asylum - you'll soon see why it's called that when some of the others arrive. Nursie will be round soon with your meds !!!!

    Great intro by the way, including pics!!!! You'll fit in here very well. Give our love to Mia and Lisa.
