Hi Mike, GREAT move doing the bike swap on the video so we could better enjoy the soundtrack! I've loved the sound of the early Triumph triples that compare favorably to my '95 900 Daytona & '01 Speed Triple 955i in my past.
Hi Dan, I’m not sure what year the Henderson is, but it is fantastic, isn’t it. As you may have seen, Chris has ridden that bike across the country as part of the Motorcycle Cannonball ride.
❤ 🇬🇧❣️ I am so glad you enjoyed this adventure into the beautiful PNW. You’d be surprised as to how many from the UK live around the Puget Sound area. 😊
What a nice ride in beautiful landscape! Impossible in Germany because completely crowded, especially on weekends… nice, nice, nice! Greetings from northern Germany Manfred
Awesome video! Thanks again, it is such a wonderful sight seen all those classics and semi classic motorcycles, scooters too, and also seen the small trail/mopeds, just a wonderful mixture of bikes. Great focus and editing on this video, spot on views of the bikes and gave a great sense of the event. Many thanks to the organizers. Cheers, from California.
I live in New Mexico. My wife saw me watching this video and bought me a membership in your club. Guess I’ll have to make the 22 hour drive! My 400-4 will love this area.
No idea what bike it is @22:40, but that don't half look like the Opel badge . Opel are now part of GMC now I believe (maybe wrong) and they have a Dodge Hellcat? Anyhow it is a very nice looking bike. I love the Orange Triumph Thunderbird 900 I seen @11:35 ish, never owned or driven one, so no idea of the pros and cons, just always wanted a Thunderbird Sport.. maybe one day:)
Thanks so much Kevin!! We are nearly there, my friend! Can't believe it. It's been a wonderful ride and I'm literally editing an announcement video right now, with the 20k target being one of the announcements! Best wishes!
I am in Kitsap and checked into this. It appears due to over attendance by non-vintage riders they've stopped publicly advertising the date. For $40 annual you join the vintage association and then are able to know schedule of events. I'll be doing this in 2025 with my 43 year old Kawi.
I know! I think I’ve only seen one other before in the Marymount Museum in Tacoma, Washington. Would love to have seen and heard them start up. Cheers, Mike
Thanks Gary. TT actually stands for “Tourist Trophy” if the guys are using the same acronym as the IOM (Isle of Man) TT name, but also no racing at Vashon. Just a great fun event. 👍👍
That was a fun weekend. So glad you could finally make it up to Vashon Island. Great hanging out with you and thank for the shout out. You really captured the essence on this event.
Looks,a,great,event,mike,well,organised, brilliant,scenery,all,good,regards,mike,United Kingdom
Hi Mike , I am wondering if you know someone who could rebuild a Triumph Trident engine for me. Looks like I might have a new project.
Hi Don, I will ask around with a few local guys. Cheers, Mike

That was awesome Mike. Was that a 1920 Henderson? What a cool event. Thank You.

I live in Seattle and love going to Vashon. I'd never heard of this event until your videos. Thanks!
Wow, I am up in Vancouver Canada, I would love to get down to this event!!
40 years ago this was an outlaw race around the island, which I won in 1983.
Terrific, thanks for sharing Craig. Cheers, Mike.
I got in a few of those in the 80's. Those were the best of times..
Great turnout! Great bikes! Beautiful ride! Thank you for sharing!
: ) WELL DONE indeed! THANKS MUCH for sharing, ALL the BEST ! ! ! Cheers : )
Thank you Marty! Glad you enjoyed the videos. Best wishes. Cheers!

Oh great! Do you have some good fish & chips as I would love to come back again. 😉😉

Thank you very much Manfred! Glad you enjoyed the video. Best wishes
Thanks for sharing an exciting event, it sure comes over as a very friendly & well run event.
Alway interesting to 'swap' a ride Mike .. 😄 atvb t .. 🏍
Thanks, Terry. Hope all is well. Yes, I really enjoyed swapping bikes with Doug. The hurricane was a lot of fun to ride.
Awesome video!

Many thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! I might have to take a moped next time as they look like so much fun. Cheers, Mike
Glad you enjoyed the ride. We'll have to get you back on my Hurricane without my brother slowing you down.😊
😀 It's a great thing that Chris was in front, otherwise, we may have been banned from fantasy island 🏝️✈️

Awesome event...so many fantastic bikes, so little time. Thanks, Mike.

Almost at 20k subscribers ! Excellent, (I remember when you just passed 5k,,,) Speaks to your superb content, Mike,,,,keep it up !

@@TheMightyGarage it was through your channel that I learned how to replace the ISOs on my 73,,,,I've been watching ever since !
I live in WA state and I always hear about these events after they're over. Grrr. Maybe next year?

Just like you said, Wow !, two RE5’s ! 🇬🇧
I know! I think I’ve only seen one other before in the Marymount Museum in Tacoma, Washington. Would love to have seen and heard them start up. Cheers, Mike
What a assortment of great machines.
What a beautiful day ! 👍
The USA has built some great public spaces !!!
Vashon doesn’t count as the USA. 🇺🇸. 😂😂😂
Probably your best video yet. How cool was that Nimbus? Thanks for sharing.
P.S. Don’t even think about a Norton muffler on the Vincent…
😀😀many thanks and I promise I won’t put a peashooter on the Vincent

great show .
Top top thanks Mike
Awesome
Local (Kitsap) rider that's bringing a 1982 GPz back to life after its long period of storage. Can you recommend local MC paint shops to trust?
😍😍😍😍😍
Thank u4 another awesome vid so many classic bikes 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Many thanks, Adrian. Glad you liked the video. Cheers, Mike
Nice job on the video! Next year I will be there.
Thank you, Jim!
Wonderful ride! Everyone having such a good time. Love it!
The extravagantly named "Reverse Cone Pea Shooter" is in my opinion the finest silencer ever made !!
Not really a Time Trial as the header suggested since there were no races and no clocks. Still a great collection of bikes.
Thanks Gary. TT actually stands for “Tourist Trophy” if the guys are using the same acronym as the IOM (Isle of Man) TT name, but also no racing at Vashon. Just a great fun event. 👍👍
@@TheMightyGarage Well, that makes more sense. There were multiple trophy worthy bikes in both videos, and the riding was definitely touristy.
😉😀
That was a fun weekend. So glad you could finally make it up to Vashon Island. Great hanging out with you and thank for the shout out. You really captured the essence on this event.
It was great to hang out with you Sean! Cheers, Mike
What a great event. The scenery in that area looks very reminiscent of the UK. A great varied selection of motorcycles to drool over too.
Great bikes, great day, great day. Thanks for letting us ride along.
Glad you enjoyed it! 👍
Beautiful scenery, make it a destination. Enjoyed the video, Mike and RIDE SAFE OUT THERE!
Thank you, Henry! Best wishes, Mike
Mike, just another glimpse of heaven. Both visually and audibly. Thank you.
Many thanks!🙏
Vashon looks a beautiful place, even on a cloudy day. I can only see this well organised event becoming more popular if people watch your video.
You can observe whales from the ferry on occasion as non resident Orcas come through as well as larger whales .
Halfway through the video, I paused and went and rode my old bike! Thanks for that.
Awesome! 😀 So great to hear. Hope you had a good ride. Cheers, Mike
Great watch - I enjoyed that nearly as much as you did mate. Thanks.
😀😀 thank you. I hope all is well. Cheers, Mike
What a brilliant event
