Back in September, I volunteered to shoot British Car Day 2019 at Bronte Creek Provincial Park for the Toronto Triumph Club. This annual event hosts the best of the best of British cars throughout Ontario and the surrounding area, naturally peaking my interest. While it will be a couple years before I will be able…

Spring Fling
It’s a beautiful Saturday morning; the kitchen is illuminated by the rising sun, the aroma of freshly ground coffee beans fills the air and bacon fat sputters atop a sizzling frying pan. As the elixir of caffeine starts to filter through my veins, the excitement for the latter half of our morning beings to grow;…
Loose Screws
It always seemed like a pipe dream, something that was frequently discussed around the family dinner table but never within realistic reach. Fantasies of wild projects, weekend barbecues, late caffeine infused nights, 5S and family bonding echoed through my parents kitchen over coffee and dessert. More recently however, an opportunity presented itself which allowed this…
Packing It In
I’ve talked about it before, it’s nothing new. Target project completion dates continue to be chased but are often left unfulfilled, I remain to be my own worst enemy in this recurring theme of sluggish progression. Still though, my perspective with respect to the importance of effective project planning is left unchanged; you can’t meet…
Street Car Logic
As I grow older (yes, I realize I’m still young), the more I learn how valuable of a resource time is. No matter how many hours a day I choose to caffeinate myself for, there never seems to be enough time to accomplish everything on my to do list. Eliminating distractions helps, but downtime is…

Quite obviously I have dedicated nearly zero time to blogging during this time period but I promise you that the Triumph has not left my mind. First off, welcome to the new website! While Blogger has proved…
Flange Design
With the power plant in its final resting position, it’s about time that the Triumph gets some tunnels to spit it’s maybe-one-day exhaust flames through. Since there are no off the shelf headers that exist for my vehicle configuration, I took on the project of designing my own exhaust flange as a start to the…
Restless
It’s been just over one month since my last post and so much has changed, the progress that has been achieved in such a short period of time is incredible. When I think about it, I really haven’t been at the shop that frequently. I’ve been pretty absent over the past two weeks, however it’s…
Emotion in Motion
Alright, Christmas break is over. I’ve pounded back hundreds of cookies, squares, macaroons, assorted meats and alcoholic beverages. Every day it was harder to breathe than the last and for some reason my workouts are getting more challenging… weird… Anyways, now that most of the running around is over, I’ve managed to make a little…
