We need these guys in Afghanistan NOW. The Taliban would be routed in the face of precision bike riding.

you must've been one of the last visitors to Triumph at Meriden- they closed down soon after- if I could ask, waht were you doing there ?

[jsmith19810808]

Ive seen them 3 times when I was at school when they where based at Catterick, was a shame when they moved though.

Now that I am working in IT I am contenplating signing up for a role in the royal signals, best guys ever I think.

We had the pleasure of watching them tear up the front lawn at the Triumph motorcycle factory in Meriden, England in 1982. They also jumped through burning circles of straw that day. The highlight of our vacation. Thanks for posting this video!
