Triumph has announce its 2011 Adventure Tours in conjunction with Edelweiss Bike Travel. Three of the tours start at Triumph's Hinckley, Leicestershire factory.

Three of the tours will start with a look around our state-of-the-art factory in Hinckley, before taking you to the iconic Isle of Man, the beautiful Scottish Highlands or to Austria for the annual party that is Triumph’s Tridays festival.

Adventurers looking for a Sahara experience can take on the North African Triumph Adventure Tour, while an Asian trip around stunning Thailand is scheduled to take place in December.

Unfortunately, Battlefield Biker Tours is on hold this year as I transition back to the USA after 17 years in the UK and nearly 23 in Europe. Watch this space for cool new tours in 2012, though, both in Europe and the USA.
