T100 Dream

Every fiber of my being wants to see this guy fire it up and ride off into the sunset. Great story. I have the same dream motorcycle.

Ran When Parked

1967 Triumph 3TA Bobber 350cc. This bike is a little unusual. To begin with it's a custom built around a 3T. I'm not sure I've ever seen another Triumph "bobber" with a nacelle. There were some unusual choices made but I think it sorta works. The fab work looks to be pretty high quality too. Sadly the listing suggests it's an estate sale.

Motorcycle Gang

Sometimes the motorcycles are good enough to justify watching a bad movie. Thanks Vorhese!

Budschat 1957 T100RR

Bob Budschat's race notes from July, 27 1957. The 1957 Triumph T100RR was a very limited production competition-only model purpose built for “Class C” dirt track racing. T100RR's were scarce enough they tended to go to only the very best racers. Based on other race results I’ve seen for Bob, he must have eventually nursed his back to perfect health.

 Bob ran Triumphs from 1950-1959. He raced for Johnny Allen in Tacoma and raced/worked for Dewey's Cycles in Seattle.
