    Hi all,
    Just joined the forum so stopping by to say Hi :)

    Late last year (2023) I purchased a 2017 plate T100 Bonnie which I'm very much looking forward to getting out & about on as much as possible over the coming months of 2024.

    Cheers
    Mike

    Hi Mike, welcome to the forum and Triumph ownership. Any Bonnie is a good bike so you've made a good choice. Is this your only Triumph / bike? I too stay in the Scottish Borders, Peebles to be exact, and we certainly have some great roads to enjoy. Just mind the potholes! I recently bought an older Bonnie, a 2012 865 T100, which shares my garage with four other Triumphs. Have you thought of joining TOMCC, the Triumph Owners Club? I'm a member of the Scotland South branch, we meet on the last Sunday of each month at the Navaar Hotel in Penicuik, next meeting will be at 12.30 on the 28th. Why not come along and have a chat with fellow Triumph owners, you'll be very welcome. Get back in touch with me via this forum if you'd like more details.

    HI, thanks for the welcome & invite.
    Yes this is my first & only triumph. I also ride classic Vespa & Lambretta scooters which I have in my collection but my main ride will be this T100. I've had BMW bikes in the past but always had scooters since a young lad & I've always wanted a triumph bonnie bike.
    Not sure if I can make next TOMCC meeting but will come along maybe next time.
    Thanks
    Mike
