    Join us in this video where we take Jared of @weemsmotorco (A certified classic/vintage Triumph expert) out on 70's OIF BSA/Triumphs around various motorcycle centric locations in the midland.
    We first head out to Meriden home and site of the major manufacturing plant and Home of Triumph Motorcycles. We then head on the original Triumph test route finishing up at The National Motorcycle Museum.

    Tell it like it is Emily 😂 Made me look at my bike and feel guilty for not cleaning it. As the weather closes in in Britain it's always good to make the most of every dry day, brilliant to see those bikes on the road, and what a treat for Jared 👍

    What a fantastic adventure with your old man Joe! The way he lovingly looks at his bike that brings back memories of yore. He would ride it if it wasn't a damn kick start!
    It was so refreshing to see Emily the star doing some flower potting while you washed your dad's bike!
    You are a true gentleman & master of classic bikes!
    Cheers👌

    The National Motorcycle Museum is a real treat. Pity it's a bit of a trek for me (but not as far as for Weems, of course!). I do, however, live only 20 miles from Sammy Miller's, so I can't complain too much! Have you been, Joe? It's definitely worth a visit and, if you're lucky, you may even see Sammy himself. He's as valuable as the exhibits!

    Emily's garden is so lovely! I had forgotten how simple the motorcycles were in the seventies, there’s almost nothing on them. Compared to my 411 RE Himalayan the handlebars look particularly sparse, almost no controls at all. Perhaps when you visit the US you can visit The Barber Motorcycle Museum, it's very impressive . Given the recent events in the Tampa Bay area, I do hope Mr. Weems is ok, there has been much devastation.

    I’ve been quite happy with Hagerty, too. Never had a claim but they seem to be the only insurance company that recognizes one can usually only drive one of one’s classic vehicles at a time.

    Joe, you're going to have to explain, they're both BSAs but one's got Triumph on the seat and the other's got CCM on the tank and whilst they look the same, the rear brakes are different.

    Don't change your energy or "energy".I get pretty tired of being screamed at by presenters trying a bit TOO hard to get attention. Americans can get over accustomed to everything being volume eleven. You guys are wonderful as you are. Look at Allen Millyard. He is incredibly low key and, when he has exciting content, he gets millions of hits! Again, you guys are genuinely appreciated
