    Hi, I'm a retired CAD drafter in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. My current ride is a 2009 15th anniversary 1050 Speed Triple. I have been riding bikes for 41 years and Triumphs for 19. My previous ride was a T595 Daytona. I used to ride daily to and from Brisbane CBD, and weekends with a local club called "Ratbags" (Riders Association of Triumph, Brisbane Area and Gold and Sunshine Coasts) but don't get to ride as often as I would like these days. Longest rides Brisbane to Phillip Island (twice) - three full days of riding each way, did this twice on the Speed Triple, the last time being 2014. Attached pictures show the Speedy when near new & the Daytona prior to 2009. Cheers !
