I have included comments on this in a reply I have been drafting
to TeriAnn's posting of a few weeks ago on Why join (or renew)
membership in The Vintage Triumph Register (VTR). Since Darrell
asked the question, I'll specifically address the convention
siting issue. Briefly, there has never been a VTR convention in
California (or anywhere else on the west coast) because VTR has
yet to receive a formal request from one of its west coast
chapters to host a convention. I, as president of VTR, have on
occasion fielded questions about hosting a convention by different
chapters on the west coast, but none of them has ever followed through
and formally asked to host a convention. That, by the way, is not
a critisism, but simply a statement of fact.
Bill Sohl, VTR President
