DYTD – it’s a real thing!!!  Although intended for Triumph owners, everyone can join in.

“Are you ready for DYTD coming up on Monday, February 10th, the day when you take your Triumph (or other LBC) out for a drive and take a photo of it? Remember this could be a cool spot, work, grocery store, wherever. If your car is in hibernation for the winter, or in restoration or repair, take a photo of it in your garage. Have fun with it. Then send the full hi-res photo to DriveYourTriumphDay@gmail.com.

Ensure that you include your name, the year and model of your car, as well as the city, state, and country where the photo was taken.

Once all the photos are processed and posted, Triumph Travelers Sports car Club will send out an email containing the link for you to view the photos.”
