    Hello from Northeast Florida. I have 1970 T120R Bonneville I am trying to get back on the road. I will dig out some pictures of it along with my other bikes. Thanks for having me.

    Welcome to a great forum and wonderful online community, Drew! I lived in Gainesville for a year--are you near there? Looking forward to seeing pics of your bikes.

    Finally found a picture of my '70 Bonneville from the day I bought it. The old guy who sold it from had a number of vintage Triumphs he was restoring and selling because he couldn't kick start them anymore. It's not all original but it is numbers matching. I worked out of town for an extended period so now it needs some work to get it running again. 20140319_142816.jpg

    I'm in Atlantic Beach near Jacksonville, a couple hours from Gainesville. Being the home of the University of Florida, it's a fun place to visit and full of beautiful women.

    And as I remember, also full of expensive cars filled with college kids (mostly those beautiful women). ;) I really enjoyed my time in Gainesville and was an adjunct prof at UF the year I was there. When I had to fly someplace that year I nearly always flew out of the Jacksonville airport. Lots of little towns between the Jax and Gainesville---with lots of speed traps! :p
