[WPTA] February Dzus Dnuz

[John Sutherland]

Hi Tom,
That's really nice to hear!  
>From Beaver Falls what comes to mind is maybe Settler's Ridge Park, just past the airport for you?  A  coworker of mine told me their wave pool recently closed for the season and has a large parking lot.  From there you can do could do roughly 15 miles of mostly 2 lane-backroads to Friendship Village (1296 Boyce Rd, Upper St Clair, PA 15241). I drive my cars out there periodically and they are pretty decent without much traffic. 
I'm sure some of the WPTA members may have better ideas.  I will be there with my Dad's TR3 and my TR6. Will look forward to meeting you (and checking out the bike).
Pete

#yiv0620568401 P {margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;}Pete,What a great idea for your Father! I'm planning on bringing a 1968 Triumph motorcycle. I could take back roads from Beaver Falls, although I would rather avoid the heavy traffic when I get closer. Some of the young girls tailgating me while they're texting their boyfriends makes me nervous. Bud Osbourne offered for me to leave a trailer at his house, but somewhere slightly closer, and back roads might be nice. Do you, or any other members, have any ideas?Thank you,Tom ReedFrom: Wpta <wpta-bounces at autox.team.net> on behalf of John Sutherland via Wpta <wpta at autox.team.net>

Subject: Re: [WPTA] February Dzus Dnuz Hello All,
My father, Jack Sutherland, was a long time member of the WPTA, and those who remember him may be aware that in his younger days used to race a TR3 in SCCA competitions in Connecticut and Southern California in the 60's (I still have his competition license signed by Kas Kastner!).  
You haven't seen him in several years as in his advanced age (he's 91)  he's developed a condition known as Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), a predominant symptom of which is dementia. 
He's currently in the memory care unit at Friendship Village, which is on Boyce road in Upper St. Clair.  And while he's lost quite a bit of his memory, he still loves Triumphs and gets a real kick out of seeing his TR3 when I drive it over for a visit.  
I'm reaching out (on his email account) to let folks know that Friendship Village, where he lives now, is having its 1st Annual Charity Car Cruise on Saturday, September 19th at 10:00AM.  So if anyone is looking for a reason to get their Triumph out that weekend for a drive, I hope you keep this in mind as I know he'd be delighted to see some British iron.

Thank you,Pete
