Spotted!

As the T7's are slowly becoming more common, it's nice to meet a fellow owner every now and then.

 

I spotted a blue T7 last Saturday (18th of April) in Deventer, The Netherlands on the road next to the river coming into town. Curious if that was a fellow forum member.

Unfortunately I was on my Griso, otherwise I'm sure the wave would have been more enthusiastic both ways ;-).

One of my trips was close to Deventer, but that was a week before the 18th.. And on a Red/white T7 🙂

 

In my vicinity I have not encountered other T7's yet (Uden, close to Eindhoven). But my waving would also be more enthusiastic then normal.. 

I'm trying to get used to gravel/sand and planning to try a part of the T.E.T. soon!

I work (or before CV19 I worked) at a country pub where bikes tend to congregate on nice days. I have talked to many a rider, no matter their ride, in the time that I had worked there. Whilst saving for, but in time realizing I wasn't going to be able to afford a T7 I thought to myself, "one day I will see a T7 here and it ain't going to feel good. 

Funny how things work out. Some family money came my way and I got my own T7! Funnier thing is that the exact day I went to buy my T7, that morning there was one out front of the hotel. I was leaving work to go buy the bike and I had to talk to the owner of this one out front before I left. His was going in for it's first service. So I finally saw a T7 at work but had paid for one myself the same day.

Apart from the shop demo I haven't seen another, though any bike spotting these days is a marvel.
