I want to pass on an upcoming Triumph trip we are about to start. I own a 19=
67 TR4-IRS that I finished restoring back in 2015. I restored it for reliabi=
lity and not so much to be =E2=80=9Canother pretty face=E2=80=9D at car show=
s. <br>
Anyway, our local club (TriState Triumphs) does monthly =E2=80=9Cspirited dr=
ives=E2=80=9D after the salt is gone. After one of our recent drives we were=
 partaking in an adult beverage and one of the guys announced that one of hi=
s =E2=80=9Cbucket list=E2=80=9D goals was to drive his TR6 up Pikes Peak. We=
ll, we all looked at each other and asked, =E2=80=9Cwhen when are we leaving=
?=E2=80=9D So the main group of 5 TR6=E2=80=99s and one Lotus Elese are leav=
ing July 3 from Cincinnati to Kansas City the first day and continuing on to=
 Manitou Springs, Co. the second day traveling west on I-70. Colleen and I a=
re leaving for Nashville,Tn. on May 26, then west on I-40 through Little Roc=
k, then Oklahoma City, then Amarillo, Tx. to our nephew in Edgewood, NM. Aft=
er a few days there we are driving north to Manitou Springs, Co. <br>
We have plans beyond that but we=E2=80=99ll talk about them later.<br>
Can=E2=80=99t wait to get on the road!<br>
