[Sticky] Introduce Yourself!

@webmaster

‘Hope these pictures post.  This is my new rig, namely a Triumph Bobber and Watsonian sidecar.  Texas Sidecar Company rescued this rig and got it painted and together in six month due to his other customers ahead on me.  Many thanks to James Screiber, a fellow Marine and USCA member, who subsequently drove 50 miles to visit me twice, and correct my tire rubbing against the fender by grinding bolts sticking out from the turn signal assembly.  I’m now out every day getting familiar with the rig, and reading Driving a Sidecar Rig and teaching myself.

Although my patriot ancestors fought the British long ago, my enchantment with English motorcycles was born in the early 70s as I fell in love with my first motorcycle, the 750cc Bonneville.  I would go on to own Harleys, but always came back to Triumphs.

The notion of owning a sidecar was born by my love of the designs from the 1930s.  

Wow!  What a beautiful rig.  🤩 

Glad you are putting it to good use.  I'm a big fan of Triumph and Watsonian.  What a great pairing. 👍 

Welcome fellow watsonian owner. 

That's a fabulous looking rig.

@paul-mattoon The color is striking very handsome outfit. Enjoy it for many, many miles.

Thank you.

Hi Paul:  Thanks for posting photo's of your rig.  I recall you telling us about the rig at the Sidecar Muster at the Rusk KOA, back when the sidecar was still on order.  Very nice!
