Triumph celebration at Mallory
Triumph will be celebrating 20 years of production at Hinckley on September 18th 2010, with a special day at Mallory Park, reports Alastair Walker.
Riders of all marques are being invited to enjoy a packed day of entertainment at the Mallory Park race circuit in Leicestershire, with additional activities scheduled to take place at Triumph’s manufacturing facility nearby in Hinckley. A full programme of on and off track activities will be laid on, with a round of the Triumph Triple Challenge, special invitation races featuring the Street Triple and Daytona 675 motorcycles, plus shows from Triumph’s professional stunt riders.
Off-track, visitors will be able to view the latest range of Triumph motorcycles, together with a selection of customised Triumphs. Classic bikes from Triumph’s history will also be on display, highlighting 20 years of the revived brand’s success.
The Triumph company was brought back to life by entrepreneur John Bloor, who put a large part of his personal fortune into the project, after acquiring the rights to the Triumph name in the early 80s. Since then, machines like the Speed Triple, Daytona T595 and the Bonneville have put the brand back on the map.
Triumph’s event will also offer visitors the chance to take a tour of the nearby factory where Triumph’s motorcycles are made. The company has also promised a few exclusive surprises for fans making the trip to this special event and the party will carry on late into the night, with a full programme of live music planned. Tickets for Triumph Live are on sale now online via www.triumph-live.co.uk – with an advance price of £24 and admission is free for children under 16.
