As in, “Return to Base.” One full day left in Lake Charles, LA, and then home…and I regret to say, after nearly 10 days in Houston and Lake Charles, I’ve yet to see any LBC let alone a Triumph. Oh, I’ve seen plenty of Range and Land Rovers and Jaguars (such as the XJ in the photo), but no Triumphs, MGs, etc. Ah well…maybe I’ll get lucky on the drive home.
BTW, I forgot to mention: Houston has one of the great Triumph clubs (actually, they’re all great, eh?), the Texas Triumph Register. Call up their web page some time at http://www.texastriumphregister.org/. And if you’re a member of The Vintage Triumph Register, watch for issue No. 157 of TVT; it includes a story from TTR concerning an incredible, two-week, multi-thousand mile road trip made by several of the members in their Triumphs.
