At the end of the cul-de-sac! A Pre Unit 1956 Triumph T110 [visit 31 of 31]

At the end of the cul-de-sac! A 1956 Triumph T110
I hope that you have enjoyed this little mini-series!
This is the last visit of this season to the cul-de-sac for 2020 but we will resume again in the new year.
I'm very grateful to all my friends who visited during the summer. It has been such a wonderful relief from everything that is going on in the world at the moment.
Over the winter, we are hoping to visit with friends in their garages to chat about their bikes and projects. And we hope to resume our visits again in the springtime.
Many thanks as always to @Swooshdave for the terrific drone shots and great thumbnails for many of my videos! Dave's channel: / @swooshdave

Do you agree that this series of videos is better than anything made by professionals for big money? I've loved them all and I will miss them.

[@TheMightyGarage]

Many thanks Andrew!! I really appreciate your kind words. I do fully intend to continue the cul-de-sac visits next year and also have a little something different lined up for this weekend and over the winter months. It has been my pleasure. Best wishes, Mike

I love the series! I have watched some of the videos multiple times.... If I was closer I would love to pop by with my bikes!

As all seasons end I feel sadness; untill I envision seasons ahead and their promise of new life and rebirth.With great anticipation I'll be looking forward to all episodes coming from The Mighty Garage.Such an enjoyable channel and thanks for all your effort and enthusiasm! Many Blessings.

Old Motorcycles are the best. I got my first motorcycle in 1965. I was 16 at the time and these were the bikes that ruled the road. Those were the motorcycle that could do it all from touring to racing to off roading. No specialty motorcycles, designed for one purpose. They could just be anything you wanted..Love all your videos..

[@TheMightyGarage]

Hi Martin, thank you very much for your kind note. I really appreciate it. Yes, we have so much fun with these old bikes. They have so much character and are just a joy. Best wishes, Mike

[@sameednakai8766]

What a gorgeous bike! It sounds exactly right, the proper mechanical noises of a pre-unit. I had a 64 TR6R, I really miss it. The "cul de sac" has been a really pleasureable visit to history. This has to be one of the cleanest restorations. Thanks!

Sunday night.... The Mighty Garage, Michael Waller & Allan Millyard, it don't get any better. Fantastic bike. As soon as it came into the "cul-de-sac" you knew it was a Triumph. Great stuff.

[@PeterJUren]

Mike, when I read the title of this week's video, my first thought was that this was the last cul-de-sac offering forever. Thankfully, my fears were quickly dissipated when you advised that this was the last of the year - phew! I've loved this series, and look forward to the resumption in 2021. And then you turned up on your immaculate T110 - what a gorgeous little bike, and so well restored and presented. Well done.

[@TheMightyGarage]

Thank you Peter! This last episode got me motivated to get the triumph running again. I'm ashamed to say that it hasn't run for quite some time and it was such a thrill when it started up again. Now I have to get out and ride it a little bit before the weather deteriorates! Best wishes, Mike

A fitting end to a heart warming series. As wonderful as the motorcycles are, it's their owners that made it extra special for me. Loved the Tiger Mike. Such a gorgeous colour.

Thank you very much Aidan. Yes, I agree. I have thoroughly enjoyed the visits and then editing the movies afterwards. It has been so much fun. Best wishes, Mike

[@guyfuller1369]

I have truly enjoyed this excellent series. Your videos are refreshing; they promote the riding community as rational, committed, and responsible adults. What is more, the programs have helped me through a difficult personal time, having to come to terms with my wife’s going into long-term care. I hope to see a second cul-de-sac series. From the too-cold-to-ride Saskatchewan plains, a heart-felt thank you.

[@TheMightyGarage]

Hi Guy. Thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate you taking the time to send a note. I'm very sorry to hear about your wife and I hope that everything works out okay. It has been my pleasure making the videos and meeting so many great folks during the year. I hope to continue the videos starting this weekend with a fascinating first "home visit" followed by little jobs in the garage until the weather improves and folks start returning to the cul-de-sac ☺️ Take care and best wishes to you both. Cheers, Mike

[@thakery5720]

Back in the eighties I had a Triumph 6T (pre-unit) that had a nine stud top end and was all sorts and years of bits combined, with a twin downtube frame from about 1961. I purchased a tank for it from an ad in a magazine which had so much paint on it that I stripped it in order to paint it, I found a line of little dents in it which must have been a testament to some kind of gang warfare - I laid a length of 5/8 by 3/8 chain on the line of dents and it fitted perfectly........

[@nickohare7187]

Great to see your Tiger Mike. Reminds me of my first Brit bike a 1960 3TA with the nacelle for the speedo etc. A big thank you for all your videos cant wait to see what the spring brings on. Also good to see some blue sky at last. All the best Nick

[@TheMightyGarage]

Thanks a lot Nick. Really appreciate your comments as always. Hopefully there will be a few videos over the winter and then as soon as the nice weather returns we will have a few more visitors into the cul-de-sac again. Best wishes, Mike

Hehe, yes unfortunately that is how I have been feeling, but it's time to try and ride it a little bit more. You may remember George who came to the cul-de-sac with his special commando? He has ridden his bike for 25,000 miles and it still looks perfect! So he has given me something to aspire to. Best wishes, Mike

Ha ha, thank you Chris! You would be most welcome. Not sure where you are located, but we are supposed to have a Norton rally in Lumby, BC next year (nortonrally.com). But, as you can imagine, there are major concerns as to when the border will open up again. If you are relatively close by next year and the rally goes ahead, it would be great to meet you. Cheers, Mike

@@TheMightyGarage Thanks Mike, would be good to meet you too. When the World was 'Normal' Oregon was a regular destination, so looking forward to going back. I'll watch out for the Norton rally. Until then, I have my work cut out with my latest BMW R100 RT - mostly cosmetic - but as you know, the most time consuming to sort. Cheers, Chris

That thing did sound great! Lovely bike.

Another nice guy and bike in your cul-de-sac, shame that's the last one for this season, what will we all do on Sunday mornings? Keep safe and get on with all your projects now, Lenny, from Leicestershire, UK.

[@TheMightyGarage]

Hehe, thanks Lenny. Will still be doing the videos every Sunday and have something nice lined up for the first "home-visit" this weekend! Cheers, Mike

Thanks Mike, A brilliant series which really helped get us all through at least some of this pandemic. Love that Tiger and by the sounds of it she has a real Tiger in the Tank. Stay well and look forward to seeing some of your future productions. Just wish we had a vibrant vintage bike club like yours here where I live in Oz.

[@TheMightyGarage]

Thank you Brett. Really appreciate your great comments. I'm glad to that you enjoyed the series. Yes, it's amazing how vibrant the Portland Oregon area is for vintage motorcycles. It's been such a pleasure over the summer seeing all these brilliant bikes and their owners. I'm hoping to ride the Tiger a lot more and will hopefully take the GoPro! Best wishes, Mike

Hi Mike, I can't give you enough praise for your from the 'Cul-De-Sac' series! Great production, great bikes with you & that '56 T110 finishing season 1 in red carpet style! 👌🇬🇧

[@TheMightyGarage]

Wow, thanks George! That is very kind of you. It's amazing what you can do with an iPhone! 😃 Cheers, Mike

[@TheMightyGarage]

Hi Rich, many thanks for your nice note and sharing the story of your visit with your dad. I really appreciate it. Yes, this is still my favorite bike of all 😉. I'm hoping to ride it to an upcoming show and will take a longer camera. Best wishes, Mike

[@PLINKER]

Wow! What a beauty! Mike it is soooo! Cool!

[@TheMightyGarage]

Hehe, thank you very much Tom. It really is my pride and joy, but I definitely need to ride it more ☺️

[@christhamm7064]

Mike I have really enjoyed this series. I haven’t been getting much riding in due to cancer treatment. Hopefully by the end of summer over here in Oz I’ll have the Norton back on the road. Really love your ‘56 T110 and what a beautiful restoration. It is the same age as me but certainly looking a lot better. Keep the videos coming

[@TheMightyGarage]

Hi Chris, thanks a lot for your note. I hope everything goes well with your treatment and that you will be riding again soon. Best wishes Chris, Mike

[@TheMightyGarage]

Thank you Mitch. Yes I must get back to the bike one of these days ☺️ Best wishes, Mike

[@peanutbutter4829]

Mike! this was an awesome series! Spoken from a Harley guy in Penna., its great to see all the old English and German motorcycles out of the Oregon area. You've all done a fantastic job keeping them running... Life is a Journey, so enjoy the ride!

[@TheMightyGarage]

Thank you very much for your great comments. Really appreciate it. Best wishes, Mike

Beautiful bike, love the 650 tiger sound

[@TheMightyGarage]

Thank you Adams! Best wishes, Mike

[@nikolashaidar7890]

What a wonderfull video. Thank you so much. I think my dad's T110 would've had the larger tank, being an export model to the colony's (AUS/NZ), but I'll check my old black & whites to see....Cheers Nik 👍
