Triumph seems to have lost interest in RAT for 2008. It's nothing more than a mailing list for the new magazine. Aside from a rumor of a Raid at VMD, there is nothing happening at the corporate level. There isn't even a RAT Coordinator anymore since Matt and Tia have moved on to other responsibilities in Triumph. The message seems clear that Triumph wants the local packs/dealers to "Go Their Own Way"... So "Go Your Own Way" we will!

For 2008, the pack will be working with the other Euro-brand owners groups to create a community of European motorcycle enthusiasts. Check out the euroTRASH web site for information on upcoming rides, rallies, and motorcycling events happening in the region. A prime example is that the "WV RAT Gathering" has morphed into the "Euro Rider Rendezvous" for 2008. Same great location, but hopefully drawing from a larger audience.

Let's Ride! In addition to the rides and events listed on the euroTRASH site, pack members meet for informal weekend rides, Gary's legendary "BBC" breakfast runs, and other get-togethers. These inpromptu rides are scheduled via the RAT Pack mailing list (below).

The RAT pack keeps in touch via a Yahoo Groups email list named "pghratpack". Click HERE to subscribe to the email list. If you're already a member, you can view messages using your browser by clicking HERE.

The Pittsburgh RAT pack is sponsored by European Motorcycles in Wexford.
