We won't have too long to wait to find out which of the bikes has won the hearts of those who appreciate a good custom machine and is awarded the Overall Winner. There are other awards up for grabs though and four judges will be deciding these awards from the nine machines that have been entered.

Don't forget that you can still vote for your favourite Bonneville Custom as built by various Triumph dealers around the UK.

In October, but you better be quick as there are only a couple of them. Draganfly have managed to find a couple of these dropside black dual 750 seats (1978 with the 3.6 gallon tank) for export models tucked away at the back of their rather large attic. They will be just £132 (plus VAT) to the lucky buyers.

For a day's photo shoot. Triumph were looking for a Club Member with an early Trident 900 or 750 who was willing to loan their pride and joy to the Factory for a day so that Triumph could take pictures of it. The pictures will be used in the launch of the new Trident. Someone has now been chosen.

This will be the first Trident since the 900 and 750cc machines ceased production in 1998 and is slated to be available in dealers from Spring 2021.

It already has enough support and will be holding its first meeting next month. Since it has been possible to go back to pubs, albeit with social distancing, some branches have been able to start holding meetings again. This has allowed the proposed Shropshire branch to organise its first meeting.

Falklands veteran Simon Weston hopes to realise a lifetime’s ambition to ride a motorcycle, thanks to a campaign being launched by industry veteran, record-breaking rider, and TOMCC Patron Norman Hyde. Donations are required to help build a Triumph powered Trike for Simon to realise his ambition.
