Coffee At Dawn

Norton Mike and I went up to CAD this morning. I was kinda stoked to finally meet Craig Murray. Craig was the AHRMA BEARS national Champion several times campaigning a Triumph T-140 and the man behind the now legendary Sandia Classic vintage race event in ABQ. Craig lives close to CAD so he invited me by to check out his bikes. He had a handful of bikes near completion for the upcoming MidAmerica Auction in Las Vegas. He showed me the several of the parts for his own bobber project and had some pretty nice things to say about my poor dismantled bike. I also got to check out all his race bikes, wow. His race bikes are displayed in a room done up with perfect 60's swingers decor complete with vintage Playboys etc. Quite a setup.




Craig has retired from road racing and race promotion but is still piloting a Triumph twin for Keith Martin who is involved in all kinds of cool BUB related projects and restorations. Word is the two of them are plotting a crazy turbocharged Triumph Trident based triple in hopes of cracking 200 MPH. Some retirement. Apparently there where recently some big fairing rule changes in for their class. Sounds like they could us an aerodynamics nerd... The bike in the foreground is the boring old twin. I sure felt like a noob today but he was a really cool guy.
