Hi Friends,

A bit lost, at the end of it when it's gone to happen ? For me any date in August between 9 and 28 would be fine ?

Prior to the last two posts, I had already passed on my anxiety in having a response from the Factory,
if we were to have an early August date, as even in the LoS people do have diaries that get filled.

I am afraid BB's promise to have a reply before they decamped to the dealer conference in the UK was met with a resounding ....

And, yes I have said that a weekday would be of interest, if a weekend visit was a dealbreaker.

The word from CNX is that BB have plans of a mass ride-out from BB in RCA to the factory.
I don't believe comments on attempting such an enterprise through BKK's traffic need excessive consideration;
unless, of course, BB are able to open @ 0600!

I believe it will happen, as Triumph UK said it will...
but as Kipling said,
-in between baking some exceedingly good cakes -

"Never Hurry the East"!

We can only await BB's efforts with .... interest? ...

Even if riding from BB Bangkok goes ahead what about us other non BKK based Triumph owners who for whatever reason could not be part of that "plan"?

Again a pertinent point...

I have pointed this out to BB that those riding from CNX or Isaan woud have little interest in entering BKK needlessly.
A rendezvous in Chonburi would be a better choice.

But BB's response to this has, as ever, been inconsistent ...
Though, I am told by FL, that Badger bating is now considered illegal.

Let's not rush any more hypothetical fences until we have got a date.

Perhaps, we need the blunt diplomacy of The Ambassador ...
