[TR] Triumph Side of the Road

[TRDOCTOR at aol.com]

Well, not always.  Carol and I were on the way home from the Red Wing  
National Convention when we lost the tread off of one of our trailer tires and  
it blew the fender off of the trailer.  We were westbound coming out of Des  
Moines, Iowa and had to pull over.  We put out the warning reflectors and  
went to work.  While we were trying to fix the problem a whole line of TRs  
from one of the regional clubs and not one stopped to see if we needed any  
help.  We could have used a hand.  Sure, we were pulling a trailer  but, we 
knew everyone in the group that passed us by.

That is the fact.  I was ready for the hook till  they  arrived.  I had 
called my son in law and told him to  prepare to hook up the  trailer to 
come to 
get us.  If not for  the Triumph Cavalry.  I was  toast.  I had no spare 
fuel  
filter but you can bet I will put one in the  glove box for future  trips.
