Lift up a corner of the car cover.  Take a shot with the garage door open with snow outside, what ever.  Just have fun with it and take a photo.

>> I will make it a point to sit for a few minutes in my 3 Triumphs. I am guessing the temps here in upstate NY will be well below freezing. The cars will not be started as their batteries are in the cellar on tenders. Maybe by the middle of April like this year?

>> Anyway, I look forward to the photos from all participating members.

>>> Dear Fellow Triumph Owner,
>>> 
>>> One thing that has remained constant in this crazy pandemic year, is the pleasure to social distance by taking a drive in your Triumph.  So, with that in mind, it’s time to plan a social distance activity for Drive Your Triumph Day, February 10, 2021.
>>> 
>>> My name is Rye Livingston and I'm with the Triumph Travelers Sports Car Club in Northern California, which is celebrating our 62nd anniversary.
>>> 
>>> As you may remember a number of years ago, I encouraged members of our club to drive their Triumphs on February 10th, to celebrate Sir John Black's Birthday, the man who organized Standard's purchase of Triumph after the war, and went on to make the cars we enjoy driving today.
>>> 
>>> Last year I received about 350 photos from all over the world: Scotland, Ireland, the UK, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Uruguay, Netherlands, Switzerland, Finland, Canada, Holland, Czech Republic, and of course all over the USA.  I’m hoping we can increase that number this year!
>>> 
>>> The concept is straightforward. On Wednesday, February 10th, go for a drive in your Triumph.  Take a scenic drive on a country road or out to lunch, to the market, to work, wherever. Go for a drive alone or in a big group from your local Triumph Club. Take your spouse, buddy, child, grandchild or your dog; then take a photo. The photo is mainly of the car, and the owner if possible, ideally in front of a cool spot, landmark, scenic view or in your driveway. If it’s the middle of the winter where you live and your car is in hibernation, or in the middle of a restoration, take a photo of it anyway. 
>>> 
>>> Next step is to email a high-resolution photo to driveyourtriumphday at gmail.com, along with some basic information: owner’s name, year and model of car, and place photo was taken (city, state, country). The photos will then be published not only in our club newsletter, but also in USA’s national magazine: Vintage Triumph Register, and on the Drive Your Triumph Day website: https://driveyourtriumphday.shutterfly.com
>>> 
>>> Please feel free to send this on to other Triumph Clubs you may know of, and your club Activities Chairman and Newsletter editor. Last year a few Standard Clubs joined in too, which is great.
>>> 
>>> Be sure to contact me with any questions you may have, and thank you in advance for getting the message out to your members and friends to Drive Their Triumphs on February 10th.
